In this regard it has been agreed that the Programme will revolve around two key issues: a. How can the Association get young people involved? b. How can the Association keep young people involved? As part of the development phase the National Youth Committee is eager to provide key stakeholders (Central Committees, Provincial Councils, County Boards etc.) with an opportunity to make suggestions regarding the priority issues that should be reviewed through the Programme. Furthermore, the National Youth Committee hopes to identify synergies between stakeholders in order to ensure the Programme reflects a truly collaborative and coherent process.

Page 5 ULSTER GAA LAUNCH IRISH SCHOLARSHIPS Ulster GAA has announced a major sponsorship programme for adult students of the Irish language in conjunction with the University of Ulster. The scholarship scheme will run in partnership with the School of Irish Language and Literature and is to be known as Gaeilge sa Chlub (or Irish in the Club ). It aims to promote the use of Irish within clubs throughout Ulster by providing financial assistance to GAA members who sign up for the Diploma in Irish Language course at Ulster. This two-year (part-time) course is currently available at the UU Belfast and Magee campuses, plus the university outcentres at Cookstown, Ranafast and Downings. It runs for three months in the autumn (starting 23 September) and three months in the spring (starting 27 January) and classes are taught in each centre on Monday and Wednesday evenings ( pm). Students are instructed in listening, speaking, reading and writing and many diploma graduates progress to the degree course in Irish Language and Literature. There is sure to be much interest in this scheme throughout the GAA clubs of Ulster and further information on the Diploma in Irish Language is available from Mrs Ros O Hagan in the School of Irish Language and Literature: r.ohagan1@ulster.ac.uk or +44 (0) To apply for a Gaeilge sa Chlub scholarship, contact Dónal McAnallen, Ulster GAA Cultural Education & Outreach Officer: donal.mcanallen.ulster@gaa.ie or +44 (0) DOWN DENI ROUNDERS DAY The County Down DENI coaches organised series of Rounder s days in the last week of May to coincide with an 6 week programme of striking that was coached with various schools throughout Co. Down. GAA Rounder s is one of the four official GAA sports. Along with Gaelic Football, Hurling and Handball, Rounder s was included in the original GAA charter back in Primary 4 children were picked by the class teacher and it was not always the sporty child who was picked. Children were picked on listening skills, attitude to work both in PE and in class, and their willingness to try and put in good effort in all aspects of school life. Across three venues over 350 kids had a chance to represent their school for a whole morning of rounder s. As Rounder s is a limited contact sport it is perfect for both recreational and competitive play. It also draws on a different set of skills than the conventional GAA games and is very good for developing hand eye coordination. The beauty about Rounder s is everyone is always active and it is excellent for teamwork, game sense and overall general aerobic fitness. Both children and teachers had a fantastic day at all 3 venues in Pairc Elser, Newry, Carryuff GFC, and Tullyish GFC. Many thanks to all 3 clubs who provided their field and hall facilities on the day to help in the smooth running of the event. The Uachtarán should be the main speaker at GAA events and his speech shall be the last speech delivered. The Uachtarán should perform the official opening at pitch openings and similar events and be the key person to make presentations/present a trophy etc. It is not permitted to lobby the Uachtarán during his visit.

9 Volume I1 Issue VII - JULY 2013 Page 9 ARCHIVE MATERIAL This month we were delighted to receive a treasure throve of material from Gay and George Glynn. You will remember George is the Galway man who came to teach in Castlewellan and then won an All Ireland Medal with Down in 1968 and his wife Gay of the sister of James and Dan McCartan. Old Newspapers in mint condition saved from 1957 onwards were a real bonus for us in our search to maintain Down GAA material within the County. The problem is once you start reading them little else gets done! It is our intention to have the Papers collated into each relevant year and then have them bound to allow people to access them for research. This is a beginning, we have a proud and wonderful history within our County and yet we have very little archive material available to people to access for research or just out of general interest. If you have any materials that you would like to donate to the County then please contact the County Office on or e mail secretary.down@gaa.ie we will be delighted to receive any contributions and more importantly to ensure that they are held safely for future generations. GOOD NEWS PADDY MAC FLYNN Our Uachtarain Paddy Mac Flynn continues to convalesce in Lurgan Hospital; he is kept well informed on all in the GAA World by his many visitors and none more worthy than his two great friends Bertie Leckey and Jimmy Stewart who are regular visitors. We hope that Paddy will soon be out again amongst us and we congratulate him once again on been awarded the Séamas de Faoite Cup in Downings this year. DANNY MURPHY The Provincial Director Danny Murphy is also well on the road to recovery again and was Event Controller at the recent Ulster Final, this was a magnificent achievement by Danny to be back on duty in Clones after a recent spell in Hospital. We hope that both Danny and Paddy continue to go from strength to strength. CROKE PARK COMMITTEES Brian McAvoy has been appointed Chairman on the Communications Committee in Croke Park and it is once again nice to see Down people been recognised on the national stage. On that note it was a great honour for Diarmuid Cahill to be the Chairman of the National Feile Committee this year and the superb events that were held in Derry and Limerick are testimony to the input and leadership of Diarmuid. Well Done!

For more information check out Grants/Space-&-Place. THE CONSULTATIVE PROCESS To date we have had 18 meeting with different units and interested parties as we try to develop a way forward for Gaelic Football in the County. This has to date been a most enlightening process and I think all of those who have participated can see the merits in what we are trying to achieve. The end product will be a Down plan that we hope will be unique to our County and will bring great benefits for our County. Those who have attended the meetings have been very impressed with Mr David Passmore who has been our lead consultant and who comes to the plan totally independent but with a wealth of knowledge that we are very lucky to have on board. Davis has been joined by Orlaith Curran who has been responsible for collating the information and for keeping everyone informed of the work to date. The Process moves now to the next phase when the steering group is established and we then begin the real work of developing the process to deliver a Plan for Down. We need your continued support and we ultimately need your Buy In. Working together we can make the difference. Other funding possibilities include Awards for All (up to 10,000) which remains open on a rolling basis; Heritage Lottery also have a range of programmes programmes/pages/programmes.aspx.
