‘Ireland comes to Bayside’ for St Patrick’s Day weekend
Elsternwick Park is set to turn emerald green for the St Patrick’s Day weekend when the VAFA takes on Victoria Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) amid a festival of Irish sport.
The VAFA, Victoria GAA and the Irish Australian Chamber of Commerce will join forces for exhibition games of international rules football, with the VAFA fielding both men’s and women’s representative sides.
The day bodes as the perfect celebration of Irish culture and will kick off with an exhibition hurling match while children will have the opportunity to check out the Kid’s Zone and give traditional hurling a go.
This first-of-its-kind event will mark the latest chapter in the VAFA’s proud recent history of international rules football after first sending representative sides to tour Ireland in 2011.
So bring your kids, pack your deck chairs and revel in one incredible day of Irish sport!
