The Western Canada Divisional Board of the Gaelic Athletic Association is part of the Canadian County Board and is responsible for Gaelic games in Western Canada. The county board is also responsible for the football, hurling, camogie and Ladies' Gaelic football, known collectively as Gaelic games. The Western Canada Divisional Board branch of the Gaelic Athletic Association was founded in May 2003. ==Clubs== * British Columbia (2 Clubs) * * Vancouver Harps (the Vancouver Irish Sporting and Social Club, ISSC) * * Vancouver Celts (the Vancouver Irish Sporting and Social Club, ISSC) * Alberta (4 Clubs) * * Calgary Chieftains * * Edmonton Wolfe Tones * * Red Deer Éire Óg * * Fort MacMurray ShamrocksEdmonton Wolfe Tones * Saskatchewan (1 Club) * * Regina Gaels Each of these clubs has a Men's & Ladies' Team, with the exception of Vancouver Celts & Red Deer Éire Óg who only have Men's teams. These teams compete at various tournaments over the course of the summer months. The Division is dedicated to improving the standard of competition and providing as many games as possible for the member clubs. For this reason, other clubs are invited to and attend these tournaments, even though they are * not affiliated with the Western Canada Division, (e.g. Lethbridge Laochra, Seattle Gaels, Fort McMurray, Vancouver Irish, Howe Sound, Lethbridge), or * not affiliated with the GAA (Vancouver Cougars, Calgary Kangaroos, & Calgary Kookaburras Australian rules football teams).

The Championships complement these vital tournaments. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Western Canada GAA Divisional Board」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
