Tá an-áthas ar CLG, i gcomhar le Kellogg agus TG4, a fhógairt go gcraolfar an clár GAA Cúl Camps don dara séasúr ar TG4 ar feadh sé seachtaine an samhradh seo. Tosóidh an tsraith Dé Luain, 28 Meitheamh ar 7:30pm, an lá céanna ar a mbeidh na campaí féin ag tosú ar fud na tíre. Beidh an tsraith ar fáil ar sheinnteoir TG4, áit a gcuirfear an filleadh ar ghníomhaíochtaí an champa ar fáil beo agus ar éileamh araon do gach duine sa bhaile agus thar lear.
Is iad Nemeton TV, atá lonnaithe i bPort Láirge, a léireoidh an tsraith GAA Cúl Camps agus is í Gráinne Bleasdale a chuirfidh an tsraith i láthair. Áireofar scileanna, druileanna agus míreanna ó shaineolaithe CLG i sraith na bliana seo, míreanna a mbainfidh an teaghlach ar fad sult astu, le buaiteoir Chraobhchomórtas Pheil na mBan, réalta Átha Cliath Sinéad Aherne, seaimpín Camógaíochta Chorcaí Linda Collins, Iománaí Phort Láirge Tadhg de Búrca agus imreoir Thiobraid Árann Séamus Kennedy, mar aon le peileadóir na Gaillimhe Paul Conroy agus peileadóir Dhún na nGall Ryan McHugh. Beidh dhá theaghlach ag glacadh páirte i ngach clár agus bainfidh siad triail as a gcuid scileanna nua. Tá CLG tiomanta deis a thabhairt do leanaí cluichí Gaelacha a imirt an samhradh seo agus táimid ag súil go mór le séasúr nua de leagan craolta Kellogg’s GAA Cúl Camps mar aon le leagan beo.
Tá páirt glactha ag 1,460,829 leanbh in GAA Cúl Camps ón mbliain 2006. D’éirigh go hiontach le Kellogg’s GAA Cúl Camps sa bhliain 2020 agus ba mhór an faoiseamh iad do bhreis agus 70,000 leanbh ar fud na tíre ó shrianta Covid-19. Is ionann an bhliain 2021 agus an 10ú bliain d’urraíocht Kellogg’s agus filleadh an chomórtais ar an bpaicéad a bhfuiltear ag súil go mór leis, ina mbeidh deis ag clubanna duaiseanna ar fiú €25,000, €10,000 nó €5,000 iad, a bhuachan.
Chuir Uachtarán CLG Larry McCarthy fáilte roimh an tsraith nua ag rá “Guím gach rath ar gach duine a bhfuil baint acu le Kellogg’s GAA Cúl Camps sna seachtainí agus sna míonna atá amach romhainn. Ba mhaith liom buíochas ar leith a ghabháil le Kellogg agus TG4 as an gcruthaitheacht a thaispeáin siad anuraidh chun cuidiú linn teagmháil a dhéanamh leis an méid sin daoine óga tríd an gclár teilifíse. Tá súil agam go mbeidh sé gach pioc chomh rathúil i mbliana.”
Dúirt Sarah Ferguson, Ceann Margaidh Kellogg’s in Éirinn “Tá ríméad orainn go bhfuil Kellogg’s GAA Cúl Camps ag filleadh ar TG4 i ndiaidh chomh maith is a d’éirigh le cláracha na bliana seo caite agus is iontach an bealach é le ceiliúradh a dhéanamh ar 10 mbliana d’urraíocht. Tá Kellogg’s GAA Cúl Camps ina ghné lárnach de shamhradh na hÉireann agus is iontach an rud é go bhfuil an clár GAA Cúl Camps ag cur leis seo gach bliain. Táimid ag súil go mór le breathnú ar an gclár agus na mílte leanaí ar fud na tíre a fheiceáil ag glacadh páirte sna campaí, ag bualadh lena gcairde agus ag baint súip as an saol i dtimpeallacht shláintiúil lasmuigh.
Dúirt Ceannasaí Spóirt TG4 Rónán Ó Coisdealbha “Táimid ag súil le sraith nua eile de GAA Cúl Camps ar TG4 a thabharfaidh deis don lucht féachana cuid de réaltaí na gcluíchí Gaelacha agus an chéad ghlúin eile a fheiceáil ag cleachtadh a gcuid scileanna.”

The series will be available on the TG4 player TG4.ie, making the return to camp activity, both live and on demand, available to everyone at home and abroad.
The GAA Cúl Camps series will be produced by Waterford based Nemeton TV, and presented by Gráinne Bleasdale.

Each programme will feature two families who will try their new skills.

Since 2006, 1,460,829 children have participated in the GAA’s Cúl camps.

GAA President Larry McCarthy welcomed the new series saying, “Best wishes to everyone involved in the Kellogg’s GAA Cúl Camps in the weeks and months ahead. A special word of acknowledgement to Kellogg and TG4 for the creativity they showed last year in helping us to connect with so many young people through the television programme. I hope it’s every bit as successful this year.”
Sarah Ferguson, Kellogg Market Head Ireland said: “We are delighted to see the Kellogg’s GAA Cúl Camps return to TG4 after last year’s successful show and it’s a great way to celebrate our 10 years of sponsorship. The Kellogg’s GAA Cúl Camps have become a staple of Irish summers and it’s great that the GAA Cúl Camps show is adding to this each year. We look forward to watching the show and seeing thousands of children across the country take part in the camps, getting the chance to meet up with their friends and enjoy themselves in a healthy outdoor environment.”
TG4’s Head of Sport, Ronán Ó Coisdealbha said: “We look forward to another new series of GAA Cúl Camps on TG4 which will give our audience the opportunity to see some of our Gaelic Games stars and the next generation of youngsters practising their skills.”
The Kellogg’s GAA Cúl Camps provide boys and girls between the ages of 6 and 13 with an action-packed and fun-filled week of activity focused on having fun playing Gaelic games.
