About PlayUs
We can help organize games for you
Our History
The idea for a mobile app that made it easier for coaches and clubs to organize challenge games is the brainchild of Mark O’Donovan, a West Cork GAA man. Understanding the importance of teams playing as many games as possible, Mark believed technology could assist in this task, instead of coaches using their valuable time making numerous phone calls. This vision was shared by the GAA Games Development team, who saw the potential in the technology and came on board with Mark and his team. Mark’s vision was realized in the PlayUs App “I wanted an app that I could register a team on, and when I wanted a game, blitz, or tournament I could just enter the date, time, and distance. I wanted to send the game invitation out and hey presto I would have games galore.”
PlayUs GAA, was first launched in 2017 to assist clubs to search for and arrange challenge matches, blitzes
and tournaments.
The GAA is an amateur organisation that is reliant on its many volunteers that dedicate their time and energy for the love of our games, it is challenging enough to balance work and home life without volunteering your spare time coaching or managing a team.
Our mission is to help those that sacrifice their own time and effort so generously for the good of others in their GAA club and community, and to ensure that our players get to play as many games as they need.
