Foireann
This year sees the GAA / LGFA / Camogie / Handball and Rounders Associations using Foireann, a single, integrated Membership system for the first time and all Membership registrations (for playing and other rule-based eligibility requirements) must be completed on this system. This was used last year for the Covid Health Questionnaires so most of you should be aware of how it works. As Foireann is a new system, significant support materials and FAQ’s have been prepared and are available HERE .
If you have not used Foireann or “Return to play” app before then follow the link HERE on how to register and setup your account.
Included are documents describing how to complete all of the main tasks, with screenshots as appropriate. There are also a large number of videos which run through the tasks also and some of the most important videos are highlighted below.
