FUNdamental Movement provides kids with essential basic movements to promote physical fitness, coordination, and overall health.
It’s also the best recruitment tool for any club
🧵
Rahoon Newcastle GAA ran FUNdamental Movement and ended up with 230 children enrolled — more than 60 of them brand new to the club.
That's not a fluke. That's what a well-run 6-week programme does when the focus is on fun first.
Is your club ready to do the same?

What is FUNdamental Movement?
FM gets younger kids involved in your club through the basics — running, jumping, throwing, catching, balancing.
6 weeks. That's all it takes to build a habit, grow your numbers, and make your club a place kids actually want to be.
Thanks to @lidl_ireland for sponsoring this event
Huge thank you to DJ and Sean in Whitteys Mace and Lidl on the Ennis Road for sponsoring food for today's Dave Greaney tournament.

A fantastic Saturday in Na Piarsaigh celebrating Dave Greaney's contribution to the club and marking 20 years since our Junior A Football Championship win.

One of @NapGAA legends
Dave kept football ‘alive’ in the club in the late 90s and early 00s. Without him we wouldn’t have the football environment we have today
Next Saturday sees us host the annual Dave Greaney U10 Football Tournament. The festival of football honours Dave Greaney who gave many years service to football in Na Piarsaigh. Thanks to all competing clubs & to Dave's family, many of whom will be in attendance on the day.

Great to be back in @RahoonNcGaa for another program of FUNdamental Movement
Some old faces and plenty of new faces 💪
As many as possible for as long as possible
If you’re involved in coaching young kids in sport, the greatest measure of your success in a season isn’t winning a title or a trophy 🏆, it should be about finishing the year with the same number of kids as you started with.
Enjoyment and improvement 📈 are what keeps children involved in sport long-term.

Last day of camp here in Dundrum. Fundamental movements - Locomotor skills, object control and stability all with Fun games and activities
Great to see the benefits of MNF starting to come through to senior level with these 4 lads making their senior football debuts tonight.
Hopefully the start of a very productive pipeline for @NapGAA football
Makes it even better when one is your own 😉
Alex Harris, Ferdia Minihan, Odhran Gilroy and Cian Cronin all made their senior football league debuts in this evening's opening round win.
Drive it on lads. 💪🏻

As many kids as possible for as long as possible
Make FUN & Movement the centre of all coaching
“There needs to be a realisation that children develop at different rates physically, emotionally, and cognitively. The child who struggles with coordination at seven might shine at 12, but only if given the opportunity”

‘ What they need most now is space to explore movement and skill development without pressure’
FUNdamental Movement is the way forward
