GAA clubs can win €5,000 in ‘eir for all’ Poc Tapa Challenge:
eir, Ireland’s leading telecommunications provider, is calling on GAA clubs across the country to take part in the ‘eir for all’ Poc Tapa Challenge to be in with a chance to win up to €5,000 for their club and the chance to play on the hallowed turf of Croke Park on All Ireland Semi-Final Day.
The Poc Tapa challenge is inspired by the age-old “Poc Fada” competition and has been reimagined to reflect the speed of the modern hurling championship.
The competition is based on the quickest team of up to six people to pass a sliotar around the four corners of a pitch. The team that gets the ball back to base in the fastest time will win the competition.
Elite GAA players Declan Hanon, Limerick, Shane Kingston, Cork, Eoghan O’Donnell, Dublin, and Conor Whelan, Galway, were on hand to film an explainer video in Croke Park to show participants how it’s done which can be found HERE.
This competition is open to every GAA club in Ireland, and is designed for all ages, in any venue from local clubs to the national stadium. To enter the ‘eir for all’ Poc Tapa challenge, teams must film a video of their fastest time captured from the centre of a pitch, with the stopwatch used held in frame at the beginning and end of the clip. The video must be uploaded to either Twitter (@eir) or Instagram (@eir.ireland) using the hashtags #eirforall and #PocTapa.
The fastest team in the country will win €5,000 for their club, and a chance to play in Croke Park on All-Ireland Semi-final Day. There are also many other great prizes on offer for participating clubs
