Every Step Counts challenge

-

The club are delighted to announce that we are taking part in the Every Step Counts challenge this year.

The challenge commenced on the MyLife App on January 8th and runs for five weeks until midnight on 12th February. Join now!

MyLife allows participan­ts and clubs to track their participat­ion in the challenge through regional and national league tables while also measuring the positive impact on their health and wellbeing. Full details on how to join are available below.

GET READY FOR EVERY STEP COUNTS 2024

What better way to embrace a healthier lifestyle this January than with a club activity. Our Every Steps Counts challenge is back in 2024 and we're asking your club and community to step it out to improve your overall health and wellbeing during Ireland Lights Up.

The Every Steps Counts challenge 2024 is available to join now. We're asking clubs to track a combined 4,000km over 5 weeks, so the more club and community members you have signed up for the challenge the faster you will achieve the target. It all starts on 8th January and wraps up on 12th February.

This year we are giving away €30,000 in club funding. All clubs who achieve the 4,000km target will be entered into a draw. There are three prizes of €2,500 to give away per province. Terms and conditions apply.

HOW YOUR CLUB CAN GET INVOLVED!

The Every Step Counts challenge really is for everybody, not just for club members. What better way to kick start the year than with a challenge to boost the health and wellbeing or your employees while supporting your local GAA club. All your employees need to do is download the MyLife app, enter the challenge and choose the GAA club they would like to support. This would be a massive support to local GAA clubs and a great way to connect to your local community.
