about us
Welcome to Al Reem Shamrocks GAA Club, the heart of Gaelic games in Abu Dhabi! Founded in September 2017, our club has grown stronger each year, celebrating numerous promotions and accumulating a collection of silverware.
We pride ourselves on fostering a strong community among our members and supporters through regular social events, activities, training sessions, and tournaments. We field men’s and ladies' football teams at both Senior and Junior levels, as well as Intermediate hurling and camogie sides.
In 2018, Al Reem Shamrocks made history by introducing Handball to the Middle East, hosting and winning the region's first-ever handball tournament against Riyadh.
We welcome participants from all backgrounds and abilities interested in playing Gaelic games, making new friends, or staying active in the UAE capital. Join us as a player, coach, or supporter and be part of our vibrant community. Bígí Linn!
