GAA census

[The Aristocrat]

Just wondering if there was ever a properly conducted GAA census ever done and if so is it possible to extract the information.

For example:

• Age/sex/nationality etc.
  Playing age groups
  Players who play both codes
  Players who play one.
  Players who stopped play after minor
  Players who retried 25-30/31-35 Etc.
  Club membership paid amount?
  Personal equipment amount?
  Travel time for training/matches etc.
  What other sport do you play.

You know, a lot lot more questions to ask.

Would it be an impossible task?

I know there are stats on paid membership per club juvenile and senior or registered members of that club etc.

The GAA are using figures from the last census to target growth areas on the East coast, I wonder if we could do so much more.

In a recent survey in Longford the following numbers were declared active. 13 year's old 125, 14 year's old 132, 15 year's old 111, 16 year's old 112, 17 years old 96 and 18 year's old 112 . Total 688. Next year's county minor panel will be chosen should they all still be playing from 208 players as no U-16's are allowed on minor panel .
