I acknowledge the hard work the GAA does. We had the féile at the weekend in Galway and it was a magnificent weekend, much of which is down to Damien Coleman, the development officer in the area. I have enjoyed Cúl Camps for the past three years and I have three kids participating. When the two younger children, who are girls, get to sixth class, however, it stops. In Portumna we are trying to get to 120 and all clubs try to increase their numbers. Is the organisation trying to expand the age range or to put on a separate week for teenagers? The GAA does good work for the under 16 camogie girls in helping with their diet and so on but I would love it to be part of the Cúl Camp week, particularly for teenagers. Is any development work being done on that? If the GAA wants to do a pilot, I ask it to come our way as we would be delighted to take it on board.
