Financial Boost for local GAA Clubs & Schools

Last week in Croke Park, Tyrone fans and players were acknowledged for raising EUR50,216.09 during 2007!
This is the amount generated by Gaelic Telecom and its Tyrone customers for local GAA Clubs and Schools in the county. Nationally, EUR2.9m has been raised over the past three years for Grassroots GAA.

Tyrone had the highest growth rate across the 32 counties and took 14% of the Ulster payout. All Provinces showed great growth and while Galway, Dublin, Cork and Donegal earned the highest amounts in their respective provinces, Tyrone, Galway, Wexford and Cork showed the highest percentage growth by province. The Gaelic Telecom partnership has grown from strength to strength in the Republic and the 6 Counties have earned 60% of the total Ulster payout with 27% of the National payout for 2007.

Tyrone GAA Clubs and primary schools have already been presented with the EUR50,216.09 raised during 2007.
