What's Scór ?

In 1969, Cork 's Derry Gowen initiated Scór and in doing so provided the foresight to promote all the best in traditional music, song and dance under the Cumann Lúthchleas Gael banner. It allows GAA members and communities the social outlet to participate in a range of stage activity.

Cumann Lúthchleas Gael on promoting Scór at adult and juvenile levels has helped to play an important role on the revival of our culture and heritage. Both juveniles and adults in towns and villages countrywide have been afforded the opportunity to interact in the best of Irish culture.

Competitions commence within a parish and progress onto divisional/district level with the standard of fare ever improving onto county and provincial finals. As on the playing fields, the climax of the season comes on All Ireland Final Day with Athlone, Belfast , Castlebar, Killarney, Limerick and Millstreet amongst the locations destined by Scór personel over the recent past.
