Following on from the Provincial event, a Club Officer Development Course will once again be held in every county in Ulster to ensure club officers have all necessary information for their roles and tasks in 2014. The half-day session aims to provide club officers with all essential information for the year ahead. This year each county has been asked to select four workshops from a bank of twenty to ensure that the content delivered will be of the most relevance to their clubs. These four workshops were selected from six different themes; club development, governance, communications, health, volunteer development, culture and language. In addition this all counties will have a Child Protection Workshop delivered to update volunteers on any changes in legislation or GAA Rule.
Clubs should note that not only will these training opportunities build the capacity and knowledge of their volunteers, it is also a requirement for Club Maith accreditation.
