What is meant by grassroots provision?
Helping the lowest levels of the GAA in terms of the clubs and
their facilities. This is the base of the GAA. The network of
clubs, over 2500 in Ireland alone, are where the GAA derives its
strength. It is built on the clubs. They are the root of the
organisation. The ordinary people that run these are what make the
GAA what it is, so it is important to support them. So a lot of
investment goes into the clubs to help them as they are the
grassroots of the GAA. Without the clubs the GAA would not exist,
so money earned within the GAA is needed to keep them going.
