Jamie Finn, Chairperson of Dubai Celts GAA, welcomed the partnership, saying: “Support from organizations such as Fisher allows us to continue developing the club and creating opportunities for people to connect through sport. Dubai Celts is about much more than sport; it is about building a strong community, creating lasting friendships, and giving people a true sense of belonging in Dubai.”

Dubai Celts GAA participates in competitions across the UAE and the wider GCC and continues to promote Gaelic games while providing a social and sporting home for the growing Irish community in the country.
