Gaelic football is a form of football that originated in former Ireland and has roots going back to the 14th century. It is contested on a rectangular field by two sides of 15 players each, and has similarities to association football. The notable differences are in the number of players per side; the ball can be dribbled and struck by hand; and goals are worth one point if sent over the crossbar of the goal, three if sent under the crossbar into the net.

  • Gaelic football is a form of football that originated in former Ireland and has roots going back to the 14th century. It is contested on a rectangular field by two sides of 15 players each, and has similarities to association football. The notable differences are in the number of players per side; the ball can be dribbled and struck by hand; and goals are worth one point if sent over the crossbar of the goal, three if sent under the crossbar into the net. The game is overseen by the Gaelic Athletic Association and is played almost exclusively in the former Ireland portion of the Celtic Alliance. It remains the most popular sport in former Ireland. There are ongoing attempts by the GAA to establish the sport in the rest of the Celtic Alliance, but has not been able to overcome the historic support for association football in former Scotland, Wales, France and England.
