GAA Games Development in Cork set to receive a significant boost with new appointments

Cork GAA now welcome applications for the role of eight new GAA Games Development Coordinators (GDCs) across the county.

This will be in addition to the six Games Development Administrators (GDAs) currently in place, who will be offered the opportunity to migrate to GDC roles, resulting in a total of fourteen coaching staff tasked with improving participation and playing standards at ground level.

GDCs will be responsible for the delivery of GAA games development policy and related programmes as contained in the county coaching and games development plan in local clubs and schools (Primary and Post Primary) within a geographic area of a county. The role will also focus on establishing self-sufficient and sustainable clubs by building capacity and capability within the volunteer structure to deliver a games development programme. A key target associated with the role will be the growth and retention of coach and player participation.

Applications are now open (until Wednesday, July 12th at 3pm).
