‘Have A Go’ – Hurling and Camogie Event

 
Galway played host to another fantastic ‘Have A Go’ Hurling and Camogie event, as children from across the county were invited to Pearse Stadium to experience the skills, excitement and fun of both games.
 
The event provided a wonderful opportunity for children, particularly those from non-hurling and non-camogie areas, to pick up a hurl and give the games a try in a fun and welcoming environment.
 
Throughout the afternoon, the children took part in a range of station-based activities, learning and developing skills before putting them into practice through plenty of exciting small-sided games. With expert coaching from the Galway GAA and Camogie staff, along with the support of local coaches who generously gave their time and shared their skills and experience, there was plenty of fun and activity for everyone involved.
 
The young players also got a very special surprise when Tom Monaghan made an appearance. One of Galway’s standout performers this year, Tom has enjoyed a stellar 2026 season in the forward line and was a hugely popular visitor with the next generation of hurlers and camogie players. He was quickly surrounded by excited young fans eager to ask questions and collect an autograph!
 
A huge thank you to Tom for taking the time to attend the event and inspire so many of our young participants.
 
Finally, a massive thank you to Cian O’Toole for organising the event, along with all the coaches and volunteers who helped make the day such an enjoyable experience. Thank you also to all the parents for bringing the children along and supporting them as they gave hurling and camogie a go.
 
We hope the day has helped spark a love for our games and that, in the years ahead, we will see some of these young stars pulling on a hurling or camogie jersey and proudly representing their club and perhaps even Galway! 🏑

Galway GAA raise over €750,000 in fundraiser as Donegal man wins stunning new home in Kinvara

Dean Doherty from Ballybofey in Co. Donegal is the owner of a magnificent new home in the beautiful seaside village of Kinvara after winning the hugely exciting Win a Home on Galway Bay fundraising draw. He was the first ticket out of the drum at the big finale in Loughrea on Tuesday night.

“I just can’t believe it. I bought a ticket just a couple of days before the big draw and was in Spain when I got the call from Galway GAA. I’m still shaking,” said Dean.

The Donegal man works as a chef on cruise ships all over the world. “I’d always dreamed of owning a house so this is just incredible. I lost in Cheltenham recently on the horses so this certainly makes up for that,” he added jokingly.

In just over four months, Galway GAA raised over €1.45 million in ticket sales with the fundraising project proving to be a huge success. “I just want to thank everybody who supported us and bought tickets since we launched our campaign last November. The response locally, nationally and around the world has just been amazing,” said Paul Bellew, Chairperson of Galway GAA.

“We were delighted the draw was able to support our camogie champion’s team holiday to New York in February. I’d also like to thank all our clubs who got involved and benefitted from the project and all the local businesses that helped us along the way. But a special word of thanks to the brilliant team who worked tirelessly on this draw in Tommy Kelly, Sean O’Connor, Seamus Hogan, Cara Martin, Aidan Brady (Aidan Brady & Co. Ltd), Cormac Donoghue (JEL Marketing) and Paul Byrnes Media,” added Paul.

Tickets were bought in all 32 counties, across Europe and around the world including Asia and Australia as well all over the USA. The full draw is available on the website http://www.winahomeongalwaybay.com.
