The other side of the GAA showcases all-Ireland cultural champions alongside footballers and hurlers.
“I would say winning an all-Ireland medal in Scór is definitely just as big as winning one for sport.”It's a huge day for the game, the fans, and the association, but there is another side to the Gaelic Athletic Association .
The teams follow a competition structure similar to that of the All-Ireland Football and Hurling Championships – with the winners proceeding to the Provincial and then All-Ireland Final."I wasn’t good at it, so I did feel a loss in that because I did still want to be a part of my club and part of a team."
“You have an All-Ireland medal at the end of the day and not many people can say they have one of those," she said. “I think more young people could get involved in Scór and reach out to those who aren’t as comfortable on the pitch or playing a sport that potentially there is something else out there for you."She also plays camogie and says both are equally as important to her.
“It was originally brought in as a winter activity and it was aimed at providing a pastime to keep our culture, our music, and song, and dance alive," Paula told BBC News NI.
