Big news! New Winning Formula is here 🔥 A brand-new LCPE textbook with @GillEducationIE supporting students to learn smarter, move better, and achieve more. Cowritten with @hilaryfitzgerPE#LCPE#LeavingCertPE
With #LCPE exam this Friday, here’s a timely reminder that safe practice it’s a live issue in Hurling & Camogie.
Helmets must comply with IS:355 standards and remain unmodified to protect players from serious head, face and eye injuries. @officialgaa@OfficialCamogie#LCPE
The GAA and Camogie Assoc have reminded players that if a head injury occurs while wearing a helmet that doesn’t meet the required standard, or has been altered from its original manufactured state, Player Injury Fund cover may not apply. @officialgaa@OfficialCamogie#LCPE
For LCPE students, this is a perfect example of the link between:
✅ safe practice in sport
✅ rules and regulations
✅ injury prevention
Best of luck on Friday! @officialgaa@OfficialCamogie#LCPE#ExamPrep
Bridget Moran was undoubtedly the kindest, most genuine person I’ve come across in this job. A stalwart of Oulart-The Ballagh and Wexford Camogie, quietly irreplaceable in the glory days of the game in the county, did so much more than her title of ‘first aid’.
Look at the last save again - the one from Fitzpatrick (yellow helmet). While less spectacular than the Tobin one, it’s actually more impressive, more difficult height & look at the second movement!!! It’s going in without the second stop!!! #Hurling#GAA

It’s here! Just got my hands on the printed copy of New Winning Formula. Proud to have co-written it with Hilary Fitzgerald. 📕
Copies landing soon with your Gill rep… you won’t want to miss this one!
These have been sent on; the state of the pitch at the end of the game. Obviously same for both teams but it’s impossible to play a proper game in this, it’s also a danger to the players. While clearly no men’s game would be played in this, I don’t believe LGFA would either.
