2008 Update

The ACB is delighted to announce that the Guinness Asian Gaelic Games will be held in Penang, Malaysia from 10-12 October.

Sheamus Howlin, Chairman of the Overseas Work Group welcomed the decision to host the games in Malaysia for the first time & said that he & Uachtarán Nickey Brennan were looking forward to attending the event.

The Chairman of the Penang Pumas GAA Club, Dr Paddy Kiernan from Monaghan, welcomed the vote of confidence from the Asian County Board in the new club & said that he believed the hosting of the games would give a great boost to the promotion of gaelic games on the island.

The ACB is negotiating the best deal for all our members & the designated hotel for the weekend will be announced shortly.

The pitches for the Games are in pristine condition with at least four pitches side by side allowing us to keep all Clubs & teams together for the weekend.

We expect a large local & expatriate attendance & are working to ensure a warm Céad Míle Fáilte for visitors & players alike. The Asia Ireland Business Forum, which was successfully introduced at the Singapore AGG in 2007,  will be held on Friday, 10 October – all players are welcome to attend. 

We are in the process of finalising sponsorship details & we need to you continue supporting the games by supporting our sponsors – all of which are listed at www.asiancountyboard.com
