Sports Campus (Hurling and Football).</p><p> There has been a very positive response from participants who have derived a great sense of achievement, fun and enjoyment from their involvement.</p><p> Cam&aacute;n Ab&uacute; is effectively a non-contact ground Hurling game which is played with a modified hurling sliotar.</p><p> The big difference between Peil Ab&uacute; and Gaelic Football is that players wear tags and a player who is tagged (caught in possession) has to hand over possession of the ball to the opposition. New footballs &ndash; a different one for indoors and outdoors &ndash; have been developed for the game.</p><p> Teams can be made up of male and female players on the basis that each team has an equal number of female players on the field at the same time.&nbsp;Players (apart from where Cam&aacute;n Ab&uacute; and Peil Ab&uacute;&nbsp;are organised within a Post-Primary School) should be over 16 years of age and participate at their own risk.</p><p> The Association is currently in the process of establishing Cam&aacute;n Ab&uacute; and Peil Ab&uacute; centres on the basis that activities are supervised by a trained volunteer coordinator.</p><p> If a Club, College or Company is interested in getting involved, the proposed coordinator should contact the Games Development Section, Croke Park on 01-8658622 or <a class="body_a" href="mailto:caoimhe.nineill@gaa.ie">caoimhe.nineill@gaa.ie</a>.&nbsp;</p><p> <img alt="" src="/content/images/543008.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 300px; " /></p>123
