Glór na nGael works hand in hand with GAA clubs around the country to promote the Irish language.
The GAA itself is one of the biggest organizations that shaped Ireland as we know it today. Since its foundation in 1884, it has been at the heart of the country’s sporting and cultural life. It is therefore not surprising that clubs would want to better support Irish speaking families and encourage others in the club community to use the language at home.
Families who are part of Fondúireacht Seosaimh Mhic Donncha registered GAA clubs can participate in the Teanga Tí scheme by creating networks that come together socially on a regular basis.
A minimum of five families are required to participate in the scheme. The parents may be fluent in Irish or may have a moderate command of the language and want to improve their ability and to speak it at a higher standard.
In order to participate, the Irish language officer in the club should get in touch with Glór na nGael on behalf of the families.
