‘Let’s Get Visible’ Awareness Campaign

The first line of the GAA Official Guide spells out how the GAA reaches into every corner of Ireland and many communities around the globe. In doing this, the GAA, the Camogie Association and the Ladies Gaelic Football Association is fully committed to the principles of inclusion and diversity at all levels.

On the 20^th of June, the GAA, the Camogie Association and the LGFA invite all clubs to become allies with the LGBT+ community and support Sport Ireland’s ‘Let’s Get Visible’ Campaign.

GAA Diversity and Inclusion officer Ger McTavish explains: “Inclusion is about making a difference. Inclusivity is a movement, a move to include. Being truly inclusive is living our GAA motto, ‘Where We All Belong’.

“This work takes many forms. It ranges from ensuring that our policies and practices support the cultural integration and social inclusion of people from across Ireland’s diverse population, to promoting sport and physical activity to everyone regardless of age, sexual orientation, ability, ethnicity, nationality, or fitness level.”

Joanne O’Riordan, sports columnist with the Irish Times, Hannah Tyrell, Dublin senior ladies’ football team, Aideen Howlin, the Camogie Association, Emma Loo, member of Na Gaeil Aeracha, Dublin, and Gary Coney, senior club player in Clonoe O’Rahillys GAA Club, Tyrone, will be amongst the speakers at the Littlewoods Ireland Camogie League Divison One final in Croke Park on Sunday June 20^th, at 19.30.
