Kildare GAA - County Board Structure

County Board Structure

The Kildare County Board, which meets once a month in St Conleth's Park, is the highest authority within the county. It is responsible for running all adult football competitions, the Under 21 championships, and minor leagues and championships. Every club sends one delegate. There is a separate board responsible for hurling, which is a subsidiary board to the county board.

Juvenile hurling and football is administered by Bord na nÓg which runs Under 14, 15 and 16 competitions. Under 13 and younger grades are separated into a North Board and South Board.

The current Kildare county board is structured as follows:
Chairman: Vice-Chair: John McMahon (Naas)
Full time secretary: Kathleen O'Neill (Rathcoffey)
PRO: Mary Donnelly (Ellistown)
Treasurer: Martin Whyte (Kilcullen)
Oifigeach Gaeilge: Peadar O Murchu (St. Laurence's)
Hurling Chairman: Eddie Lawlor (Athy)

Famous quotes containing the words county and/or structure:

    It would astonish if not amuse, the older citizens of your County who twelve years ago knew me a stranger, friendless, uneducated, penniless boy, working on a flat boat—at ten dollars per month to learn that I have been put down here as the candidate of pride, wealth, and aristocratic family distinction.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    What is the structure of government that will best guard against the precipitate counsels and factious combinations for unjust purposes, without a sacrifice of the fundamental principle of republicanism?
    James Madison (1751–1836)
