Donegal and Antrim teams set for Comórtas Peile na Gaeltachta

THE GAA’s annual Comórtas Peile na Gaeltachta will take place in the Rath Chairn Gaeltacht in Meath this year between the 30th of May and the 2nd of June and will be hosted by local club CLG Chlann na nGael. All seven Gaeltacht counties will be represented as well as clubs from Dublin and Antrim.

This year sees the 54th staging of Comórtas Peile na Gaeltachta and more games than ever will be broadcast on TG4 and RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta – both proud partners of the competition.

Comórtas Peile na Gaeltachta was set up in 1969 with the aim of bringing Irish speaking clubs and communities together for a weekend of football and many footballing greats have taken part in the competition over the years – Kerry’s Muintir Uí Shé and Dara Ó Cinnéide, An Cheathrú Rua’s Seán Ó Domhnaill, Gaoth Dobhair’s Kevin Cassidy, Cill na Martra’s Noel O’Leary, Meath’s Graham Geraghty and Naomh Abán’s Micheál Ó Cróinín to name just a few.
