The Camogie Association completed its most recent Strategic Plan in 2008. This plan acted as a tool to bring Camogie into a new era and to pave the way for greater development of the game. At the end of that plan, in 2008/09, a review of the Association was conducted to asses the Association’s needs and to make recommendations on how the Association can operate in a more effective, efficient and modern manner.
The report made recommendations that required a fundamental review of the Association’s Official Guide (An Treoraí Oifigiúil) and the structure and method of operation for the Association at national level. This work has commenced and will report in 2010.
That report has framed much of the work that has gone into this National Development Plan.
However, recognising the importance of the National Development Plan as a roadmap for the future development of Camogie a widespread consultation was also undertaken in 2008 and 2009. This involved:
- Players
- Referees
- Clubs
- County Boards
- Overseas units
- Provincial Councils
- Ardchomhairle and its sub-committees
- Staff of An Cumann Camógaíochta
- Other sporting bodies including Gaelic Games bodies.
Members/units were asked to identify the key areas of importance in developing the Association and the steps the Association needs to take to realise its full potential.
An Ardchomhairle sub-committee oversaw the drafting of the National Development Plan. Its members were Louise Byrne (Chair); Geraldine McGrath (Secretary); Joan O’Flynn (Uachtarán); Sinéad O’Connor (Ardstiúrthóir); Ardchomhairle members Liz Howard and Bridghidin Heenan; Eamonn Browne (Tipperary); Susan Malone (Derry) and Sarah O’Connor (Federation of Irish Sport). Ardchomhairle ratified the 2010-2015 National Development Plan in December 2009.
This plan is to be ratified by Annual Congress 2010.
