“Handball is played on the National and International World Stage. It sits alongside football, hurling and rounders as one of the GAA’s four core sports. The seminar is presented to increase the profile of the game with County Boards and revisit the roles and responsibilities for the promotion and development of the game.

At the end of the sessions we will have:
• Profiled Handball as an important part of the GAA Sports Programme.

• Challenged our player, coach and volunteer development pathways.
