Charlestown Sarsfields Bord na nÓg

Charlestown Sarsfields have a long and proud Gaelic football tradition and have enjoyed great success at underage level since the inception of the club in 1888. The club has long been admired for the style of football played by teams in our club and this is a tradition we wish to maintain and develop with our future generations.

Our underage players will spend some of the most enjoyable days of their lives playing Gaelic games and socialising with their friends. Whether attending or playing GAA matches, they will do so during some of the most important developmental years of their lives.

Our role and our responsibility is to ensure that they enjoy and participate in our Gaelic Games in a safe and enjoyable environment and where our games are conducted in a spirit of fair play, where everyone working on our behalf emphasises respect, equality, safety and non discrimination in all aspects of our work with children and young people.

The Sarsfields Way

The ‘Sarsfields Way’ is our clubs vision to develop a player pathway from nursery age to Minor level and create an environment at all age levels that is both enjoyable for the participants and aids their overall development both as a player and as a person as they progress from childhood to adult level.

It is our intention that this pathway programme is used to help our team coaches, to not only teach our young GAA players new skills, but also to help assess the skills learned by players at each level, committing to ensuring that all our youth teams are as inclusive as possible.

Our aim is to provide a consistent framework that can be followed from U6 up to Minor level providing a fluid and seamless transition from one age group to the next with the intention of ensuring each player can reach their full potential throughout their underage careers and progress to represent the club at senior level.

By devising and developing our own ‘Player Pathway Development Programme, ‘The Sarsfields Way’, we are creating the environment that all our young players ‘’Play and Stay’’ with our club, not only for their playing careers but throughout their lives.
Throughout this process we will strive to ensure the longstanding values and traditions of Charlestown Sarsfields GAA club are at the core of our pathway.
