The 2024 Mike Robinson Memorial Tournament

Since 2010, the Ottawa Gaels GAA has been delighted to host the annual Mike Robinson Memorial Football tournament, in memory of our late friend, player, and Club member, Mike Robinson.

A full day of Gaelic Football with friends and teammates, both locals and visitors from other GAA clubs, has been a wonderful and meaningful way to commemorate our friend, and gather as a community.

This year the tournament will be held on Saturday, September 28th, 2024 from 11 AM to 5:00 PM, at Twin Elm Rugby Park. Senior players of all ages are welcome to join us for Co-Ed Gaelic Football matches.

The proceeds from this annual tournament are donated to the Mike Robinson Canoe Trip (MRCT) fund at Philemon Wright High School, where Mike was a teacher. Mike established and spearheaded this annual trip for his students, in the context of the school’s Work-Oriented Training Path program and his own love of the outdoors. We are honoured to continue to raise funds for this important, educational expedition. The player registration fee ($10/player) is donated in its entirety along with any other donations we receive.
