Biography
We were looking for a place to play football, and stumbled upon the Dubai Celts page. But we soon realised it was very different to what we expected. It was an opportunity for us to learn a new sport in a relaxed yet competitive environment. We can still remember the adrenaline rush as we stepped onto the field for our first ever national tournament. Gaelic Football was no longer just a sport for us, it was more than that. It was about staying fit, improving our skills, but most importantly, it was about making new friends and taking a break from our stressful school lives. It’s an experience we would definitely recommend to anyone!
