Become a Referee with Galway GAA

Galway GAA is currently running a referee recruitment campaign, and Cumann Peile Mhaigh Cuilinn encourages all eligible members to consider this rewarding opportunity.

Referees are the unsung heroes of Gaelic Games. They ensure fair play, uphold the rules, and contribute significantly to the enjoyment and development of our games.

Why become a referee?

• Stay involved in the game: Refereeing allows you to stay connected to the sport you love, even if you’re no longer playing.
• Improve your fitness: Running up and down the pitch keeps you active and improves your overall health and well-being.
• Give back to the community: Refereeing is a great way to contribute to your local GAA community and support the development of young players.
• Develop valuable skills: Refereeing helps you develop skills like decision-making, communication, and conflict resolution, which are valuable in all aspects of life.
• Potential for progression: Who knows, you might even have the opportunity to officiate at the highest level and run out on the hallowed turf of Croke Park one day!
