"In the latest part of our special series, Same But Different, we examine how changes have revitalised men's Gaelic football and the voices are getting louder for the LGFA to take a similar path Walking through the 'GAA: People, Objects and Stories' exhibition at the National Museum of Ireland, you get a sense of just how far women's Gaelic games have come over the years - but also how much further they have to go."
"Certain things in the collection at Collins Barracks stand out as extremely outdated. Relics from another era."
Recent reforms revitalised men's Gaelic football, producing renewed energy and momentum across the game. Increasing calls are urging the Ladies Gaelic Football Association to pursue comparable changes to boost participation, standards and visibility. The National Museum of Ireland exhibition 'GAA: People, Objects and Stories' illustrates both progress in women's Gaelic games and the remaining gap in resources, recognition and infrastructure. Several items in the Collins Barracks collection appear outdated, reflecting historical underinvestment and cultural lag. Supporters believe targeted structural reforms could modernise the women’s game and narrow longstanding inequalities.
