In 2016 we set up a sub-committee for Health and Wellbeing. The role of the Committee is to assist the club in supporting the health and wellbeing of all club members and, where possible, the local community.
This is facilitated by communicating and signposting information and guidance which, in line with GAA headquarters, targets 5 main areas: training and personal development; drug, alcohol and gambling addictions; community development; mental fitness; nutrition and healthy eating.
We have also recently formed links with the Irish Support Agency to help promote and support each other’s activities.

Mouthguards
It is mandatory for all Men’s and Ladies Football players to wear a mouth guard both during training and in games. Custom-fitted mouth guards offer the best protection against dental and oral injury. Speak to your club player rep for more info.
Defibrillator Information
Our club has two defibrillators, to ensure there is one at every club training throughout the season. Players will be made aware of the individual responsible for each defib. A trained facilitator will speak with each code about an emergency situation.
