About Us

In summer 2019, a group of local Irish/Irish American men and women had the vision to create a Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) in Dutchess County. For many years, Irish and Irish Americans had often moved "up" to Dutchess County from the Irish neighborhoods of Woodlawn, Woodside, and all throughout NYC and Westchester. For many families, without a local connection to the GAA, their ties to their heritage and the traditional Gaelic games was lost. We are proud to offer to all in our Dutchess County community access to compete in the GAA and experience authentic Irish culture through all we have to offer...whether you are Irish by birth, Irish by descent, or Irish in spirit...all are welcome! Please read our welcome information packet below to learn more about us and the Gaelic games.
