Hi my name is Matthew. My parthner's names are Gavin and Harry. Gaelic football is a sport by the G.A.A. They are the Gaelic Athletic Association. They look after all the sports in Ireland.

Gaelic football is played by using a ball. If you kick it into the goal you get 3 points. You can also kick the ball over the bar for 1 point.

 
Each team wears a jersey. On the field there will be two jerseys, one light and one dark colour.

Look below to see the crest of our local G.A.A. club St. Brigid's. This is the crest we have on our jerseys when we play a match.

Here is Croke Park. All the important matches are played here. It is in Dublin.

This is the Sam Maguire cup. You get the cup when you win the All Ireland football final. We won the Sam Maguire in 2014 in the final in Croke Park.

This is the Dublin crest. This is the symbol that the Dublin team wear on their jerseys.

Our names are Finn and Philip. Hurling is a sport only played in Ireland. You have a hurley and a helmet. You play with a really small ball. It's called a sliothar. Look down to see them all in the picture. 

You play against your opponents. We do hurling at our club. Our team is called St. Brigid's.  This is the crest.

In a hurling match you play for 70 minutes. We play for shorter because we are young. There are two halves in a match. We have a break between the halves. Our manager is called Ronan. We train during the week or in the mornings. 

We play matches at the weekends. Here is a picture of a hurling match.

Like Gaelic football if you hit the ball into the goal for 3 points. If you hit it over the bar you get a point.

Hi Amy here. Camogie is another Irish sport. Camogie is also part of the G.A.A. just like hurling and Gaelic football. Camogie is a great sport. It is just like hurling but it is for girls. 

I will show you the logo for camogie. It is on the sliotar. This is a small ball we play with.

We need hurleys and helmets to play. Have a look at Philip and Finn's blog post on hurling and you will see photos of these.

I like camogie. Do you? I like playing matches at the weekends and training with my friends in Castleknock.

Hi I am Jessica. G.A.A. is not the only sport in our area.I like to play gymnastics. It is fun. Every Saturday I go to my classes. I like it. I go with my friends. I have learned lots of moves. I can split my legs and do lots of different types of rolls. What is your favourite sport?
