Participants are also encouraged to engage in some new exercises that help them reach their recommended weekly activity levels during the month, and hopefully throughout 2012. Sign up at www.gaa.ie/asap to receive a sponsorship card and an information pack containing details on health, exercise and diet. All participating clubs will be in with a chance to win a training session with one of Ireland’s leading high performance coaches or one of the country’s leading sports nutritionists in 2012.

Sympathy: The club extends sympathy to the family and friends of the recently deceased who include Eamonn Holland, London (formerly Mullantimore) and Kathy Rooney, New York (wife of Alban Rooney).
