Kilkenny Marble - laid down as mud from 350 to 400 million years ago on a sea bed is characterised by white shell fossils with rare traces of coral contrasting with jet black. Connemara marble - quarried in the West of Ireland it comes in a variety of green colours. The international growth of the GAA over the past number of years has been
nothing short of phenomenal as reflected in the fact that there are now 421 GAA
Clubs globally. Wherever the Irish travel, they carry the GAA with them - both
figuratively in their hearts, as well as literally by bundling a Hurley or Gaelic
football into their luggage. For the Diaspora, Gaelic games offer an opportunity
to maintain a link with Ireland but also provide an outlet to forge new links with
kindred spirits in their new home as they form friendships and create networks. There are six different games in the family of Gaelic Games. These are Hurling, Gaelic football, Handball, Rounders, Camogie and Ladies Football organised by the GAA (Gaelic Athletic Association).
