A first look at Gaelic football Elo ratings for 2025. Galway's bright start sees them go to the number 1 spot. Offaly, Kildare and Donegal making progress. Sligo the biggest losers so far after a big upset in round 1. #GAA #GaelicFootball

I'm looking forward to a day of learning tomorrow at 2024 @gaaofficial.bsky.social Coaching Conference. I will be speaking about how performance analysis can be used to support coaching interventions.

A very enjoyable 7 yrs (150+ matches) with Ballyboden is over. 5 years doing analysis & last 2 in a coaching role. 2019 Leinster win a big highlight but helping rebuild a team in the last 2 years is up there too! No doubt they will win an All Ireland again soon! www.ballyboden.ie/senior-footb...

I'm a big fan of LSGs in warm ups. In Championship you might have 20-30 players togged out & only half a pitch to warm up. Many teams will do separate activities with starters & subs. This game mixes an SSG with a LSG to include all. Change rules to suit principles of play #GAA #GaelicFootball

Players visualise better on full pitches compared to SSGs. You might want your team to kick the ball in transition from/to certain areas. You may not have numbers for a full pitch game so break the move into 2 parts with smaller numbers. 9v9 or 8v8 works for this principle. #GaelicFootball #Coaching

Looking forward to following all things #GAA and #Coaching here as people join as well as sharing my own ideas.
