The Joe McDonagh Foundation 2024 Awards were presented at a special ceremony in Croke Park on Friday night, 29th November 2024. Clubs from all over the country (including 17 Munster clubs) won bronze, silver or gold medals for their efforts, work, and commitment to the promotion of the Irish language.

The Joe McDonagh Foundation is a partnership scheme between Glór na nGael and the GAA. The partnership is committed to increasing the presence and use of Irish in GAA clubs throughout the country. The medals awarded are evidence of the continued efforts of the clubs to integrate the Irish language into their activities and to foster their growth among their members and communities.

This event not only recognises the individual achievements of clubs, but also strengthens the importance of fostering and promoting the Irish language through sport.

Following on from the success of the Awards Night, Munster GAA will soon be announcing a new Awards Scheme for clubs registered with the Joe Mc Donagh Foundation – ná caill amach air! And watch out for the Michael Cusack Awards.


Bronnadh boinn aitheantais Fondúireacht Sheosaimh Mhic Dhonncha 2024 ag searmanas speisialta i bPáirc an Chrócaigh oíche Aoine, an 29 Samhain 2024. Bhuaigh clubanna ó gach cearn den tír (ina measc 17 chlub ó Chúige Mumhan) boinn chré-umha, airgid nó óir as a gcuid iarrachtaí, a gcuid oibre agus a dtiomantas do chur chun cinn na Gaeilge.

Is scéim chomhpháirtíochta í Fondúireacht Sheosaimh Mhic Dhonncha idir Glór na nGael agus an CLG. Tá an comhpháirtíocht tiomanta do láithreacht agus úsáid na Gaeilge a mhéadú i gclubanna CLG ar fud na tíre. Is fianaise iad na boinn seo a bronnadh ar iarrachtaí leanúnacha na gclubanna chun an Ghaeilge a chomhtháthú ina ngníomhaíochtaí agus chun a fás a chothú i measc a mbaill agus a bpobail.

Ní hamháin go n-aithníonn an ócáid seo éachtaí aonair na gclubanna, ach neartaíonn sé freisin an tábhacht a bhaineann leis an Ghaeilge a chothú agus a chur chun cinn tríd an spórt.
