At Vancouver Le Chéile, development is at the heart of what we do. As part of the wider Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA), our club embraces a holistic approach to growth—ensuring that every area of our organization is supported, from coaching and facilities to administration and community engagement.
GAA club development touches on all aspects of a club’s activities. The primary goal is to promote participation at all levels and ensure the right structures are in place—both on and off the field.
Key areas of club development include:
- Administration and governance
- Finances and sponsorship
- Games promotion and participation
- Player development pathways
- Referee training
- Youth engagement and inclusion
- Coach recruitment and education
- Safe, accessible, and high-quality facilities
As a youth GAA club, we are committed to creating a strong foundation for future generations of players and leaders in our community.
