Gaelic Football & Hurling Association of Australasia

Gaelic Football in Queensland began in the late 1960’s as a casual kick-around social game among young Irishmen here on working visas. In 1975 the Queensland GAA was formed, and soon thereafter, affiliated with the national body. It wasn’t until the early 1980’s that saw the growth of Gaelic Games in Queensland, with the introduction of a 4 team men’s competition. The expansion of this competition and the introduction of women’s football in 1997 have seen Gaelic Football flourish in Brisbane, with it becoming a competitive, yet social sport, popular among Australian born participants.

At present, the QGFA runs a 6 team Men’s and Women’s winter competition from March to September and a social summer competition during the off-season months.

All games are held at Gaelic Park (situated in the Brisbane suburb of Willawong), which boasts 3 playing fields and a vibrant clubhouse.

All Clubs train at a variety of locations throughout Brisbane and welcome all old and new players to join and play Gaelic Football in a competitive and friendly sprit.

So if you feel you need more out of life, come and join your local Gaelic Football Club and have a ball.
