The conference is targeting all club coaches from Juvenile to senior level and anybody with an interest in coaching and promoting Gaelic Games. The cost is €15 per person or €50 for a group 4.

This year the theme of the conference is “Successful clubs;by chance or by design” , so all our workshops and presentations will have a relevance to developing our clubs and club coaches. This years conference will be both practical & theory based, some will have a focus on football or hurling only but the majority of the workshops/presentations can be transferable across both codes.

To name but a few, the presenters include; Diarmaid Marsdens (Club Coaching & Games Development Officer Ulster GAA), Oisin McConville ( Former Crossmaglen & Armagh senior player) , Micheal Glover (Ulster Regional Development Hurling Officer) & Ryan Porter (Monaghan Senior Team Coach).

There will also be a Question & Answers session at the end of the conference which will involve County Senior Manager Malachy O’Rourke, County Senior Footballers Dick Clerkin and Conor McManus, former All Star Eugene ‘Nudie’ Hughes, County Hurling Manager Trevor Hilliard and County Senior Hurler Pauric Dowdall.
