Primary teachers vital to promoting GAA, says Kelly

THERE needs to be a greater appreciation of the role of primary teachers, and women in particular, in promoting Gaelic games, according to GAA President Sean Kelly.

Mr. Kelly was speaking after the presentation of the Roadstone --sponsored Cumann na mBunscol National Awards in Dublin over the weekend.

Mr Kelly emphasised the importance of the primary school in fostering children's love of gaelic games.
