The BUA Programme began last September and concluded this month
The Ladies Gaelic Football Association (LGFA) has acknowledged graduates from its third BUA (Believe Unlock Potential Achieve) Programme.
The 24 graduates, representing 18 counties, as well as the Coatbridge Davitts club from Scotland, were saluted at a special graduation ceremony held at Croke Park Stadium on Tuesday April 2.
They include Zara Casey from the Ardfinnan club, Tipperary.
The BUA Programme is a self-development initiative aimed at supporting young people in the LGFA to develop life skills and qualities to benefit themselves and their local communities.
Aimed at females aged 16-19 years of age, BUA was conducted through expert-led workshops and self-reflection, before participants put their enhanced leadership skills into practice through a club action project.
The participants engaged in learning and covered topics essential for young people including resilience, dealing with change, building trust and respect, conflict resolution, problem solving, project planning and delegation.
In addition, LGFA-specific topics including introductions to coaching, officiating and administration were also covered.
The BUA Programme began last September and concluded this month, with former inter-county stars Lyndsey Davey (Dublin) and Ciara O’Sullivan (Cork) serving as programme ambassadors.
