Future Leaders

The Future Leaders Transition Year Programme is a joint initiative from the GAA and Oide, the support service for teachers and school leaders. It is an inclusive cross-curricular leadership programme comprising of a series of modules designed to encourage maturity, initiative, responsibility and leadership skills in students. The Programme gives students the knowledge and skills to support all roles required in the effective staging of Future Leaders Events. As part of the Programme the students are challenged to organise and run both on-field and off-field events in their schools, clubs and communities. 

GAA Handball are looking forward to the continued collaboration with the GAA to increase young volunteers across a number of areas (e.g coaching, refereeing, sports journalism.), particularly the number of handball coaches to provide more juvenile and adult members the opportunity to get involved in our sport.
