I try to encourage the use of irish when taking training and especially the underage such as liathraoid geansai and a haon, a do, a tri.......

Anybody else?

I dont know of the GAA has any structured programme for this, but it is a great idea.

Báid, cinnte!

I may be biased but the Corca Dhuibhne terms sound a lot better I think.
Báideoir > Cúl Báire
Caide > Peile
Gort > Páirc

Not sure what the Irish for Blanket defence or puke football would be, must look that up.  ;D

Promote the ethoes of the GAA, keep alive our native tongue, open up Irish to those who have never use, encourage children to use it..........
