Spa Mothers & Others was established in 2024 and has quickly become one of the most vibrant and welcoming groups in our club. With over 50 members and growing, it’s a fantastic way for women in our community to get active, try something new and enjoy being part of Spa GAA in a fun, relaxed environment.

Whether you’ve played football before or never kicked a ball in your life, you are more than welcome.

Our programme is part of the Ladies Gaelic Football Association initiative known as Gaelic4Mothers&Others (G4M&O).

Gaelic4Mothers&Others is designed to introduce women to Gaelic football in a fun, non-competitive and social setting. There are:

The emphasis is on enjoyment, learning skills, improving fitness and building friendships.

While originally aimed at mothers, the programme is open to all women aged 25+ (who are not currently playing competitive LGFA football). In fact, across the country, over 60% of participants had never previously played Gaelic football before joining.

It operates nationwide, with local training sessions, blitz days and social festivals — all focused on participation and fun.

At Spa, Mothers & Others is about much more than just football.

Activities include:

🏐 Football training (March – September, indoors & outdoors)
🤝 Blitz days & friendly games
💃 Social nights & dancing
🚶 Walking groups
🏋️‍♀️ Gym / fitness sessions (all year round)

Our gym sessions continue throughout the year, making it a brilliant way to stay active even during the winter months.

 Improve your fitness at your own pace

It’s a stress-relieving, social and supportive outlet where fun comes first.

 Women aged 25 and over

Members register as Full Adult (Non-Playing) members of the LGFA.
