I think they should be content playing hockey, rugby, and more hockey.
It’s a protestant school, rugger, hockey and cricket are whats up
Those Protestants up to no good as usual /j

Maybe it’s a shneaky bit of tit for tat, GAA, did ye think of that? 🧐
Where does it say that the school has “banned” Gaelic football? It offeres a range of sports where gaelic football is not one of the offerings.
Is it not the same with any other sport and school? The schools offer a number of sports. I don’t know of any school that offers every sport.
In terms of what sports a chool may add to their existing offering, a number of things need to be considered:
* how many students want to participate in the new sport?
* how many of them would be transitioning over from an existing sport that the school offers (for the school and most students, it’s better to not be spreaad too thin and be good at 1 or 2 sports rather than shite at 5 or 6)
* how will the facilities for training etc be provided?
* who will coach the team?
* who will take responsiblity for the team –
* organising competitions?
* getting them to/from games?
* dealing with issues as they arise?
* is it open to all levels/ages?
My understanding is that it is a relatively small school, so will never be in a position to offer a large range of sports.
This looks like a bunch of gobshites “protesting” over nothing. They specifically chose to attend this school knowing what sports it offered. They are in school for the purpose of learning. If they can’t learn how to effectively communicate their argument and persuade a change, it means one of two things:
1. there is no real basis for their argument, or
2. they are shite at communicating/persuading.
But going on a protest like this – I’d seriously explore disciplinary actions if I was the school.
If they want to really protest, then they should stop playing hockey and more hockey until they get GAA.
Imagine not playing the best sports on the island 😢

If you can turn a man G-A-Y, you can turn him GAA
