OTTAWA GAELS

The Ottawa Gaels GAA (Gaelic Athletic Association) club was formed in 1975. Our club aims to promote Men's, Ladies & Youth Gaelic Football, as well Irish culture in Ottawa and the National Capital Region. The Ottawa Gaels is a community of athletes and supporters that gather to celebrate and play this beautiful Irish sport... The Ottawa Gaels club was founded by a group of Irishman, led by Galway man and long time Ottawa resident, Pat Kelly. The founding group and the foundation of the Men's team included John Keenan, Don Kavanagh, Frankie Casey and Brendan Mulhall... For Irish emigrants, the Ottawa Gaels club offers a home away from home and for Canadians of Irish heritage, the opportunity to connect with the Irish community and culture. But regardless of your heritage - even if you have no connection to Ireland - this is a sport for all athletes looking for a new challenge that lets you easily transfer skills from soccer, volleyball, basketball or other team/field sports.
