Big shout out to our club member Connor Kirley, a great young man (and FHS grad) who’s a starting lineman for CNU…leading the team to their victory in their first game of the season last weekend. We’d like to think playing Gaelic football all summer had something to do with this, haha. Best of luck this season, Connor, and we’ll see you on the pitch during the Thanksgiving break 😎

Btw, we have drop-in matches all fall. Everyone is welcome, regardless of skill level. Best part: It’s free. Want to get on our weekly email list? Reach out at [email protected]

Yeah, we're still playing. Here are some great pictures from a couple of matches in the past month, including one last weekend.

Thanks to our friend Gary Dize for taking these great shots!

Want to take up a new sport and get in shape this year? We'll be out there today (Sunday, Feb. 23) at Van Dyck Park (3720 Old Lee Highway) in Fairfax.

Or just shoot us an email at [email protected], and we'll get you on our weekly email list. The club is free and welcomes newcomers year-round.

Hope to see you on the pitch soon!

Many of our club's members coach the game to kids throughout the fall under the umbrella of Fairfax Police Youth Club (fpycsports.com) and its 2-year-old Irish Football program. The program boasts more than 90 kids this fall! We emphasize fundamentals, sportsmanship and, above all, FUN. Look at all of these smiles! Here are some shots from our younger group last weekend...a big thanks to for these wonderful pictures.

Did you know that roughly 15 of our club members volunteer countless hours as coaches for the fall FPYC Irish Football program? We have 91 kids in the program this fall!

As we head into October's first weekend, we look back at a GREAT first month of Irish (Gaelic) football. All of our age groups had a blast...from the wee ones to our junior high and high schoolers!

More fun to come this weekend and beyond. We have GREAT kids, GREAT families and GREAT volunteer coaches. Thanks for all of your amazing support :)

Many thanks to for this terrific images!
