Contents: In Ireland, the Gaelic Athletic Association has become a unique sporting body. This success has largely depended on its inherent Irishness. The Irish diaspora has transported aspects of its language, religion, politics and culture wherever it has settled. The GAA has been one expression of this distinctiveness. In Scotland, the GAA has traditionally been a small organization. Using historical reflection and contemporary insight we can see how Gaelic sport in Scotland assists us understand numerous aspects of Irish identity and Irish sport beyond the island of Ireland.
