The GAA has the largest membership of any sports organisation in Ireland. When one becomes a member of a GAA club, they become part of the GAA family and part of a great community based organisation that continues to enhance the lives of so many people.
In order for one to become a member of the GAA (Association), one must first become a member of a GAA club. A person can apply for membership of a club by completing the Full or Youth membership application form and forwarding it to the club Secretary for approval by the Club Executive Committee. Once a member, a person is then registered with the Association and provided with a membership number.
All club officers should be familiar with the rules governing club membership and the rules governing registration of members and players. This is an important consideration for clubs and every effort should be made to comply with all of the rules governing this topic.

Accessing the GAA Management System - New Registrars/Secretaries
If you are a new Registrar that will be doing registrations for your Club, your Club Secretary through their official GAA e-mail account must contact [email protected] to update the Registrar details on the GAA Management System. This will ensure that you can access the system.
If you are a new Secretary and would like access to the system, you should obtain the password for your Club Secretary’s official GAA e-mail account (e.g. [email protected]) from your predecessor. At that stage, contact [email protected] and request administrator access for your Club.
