We’re excited to announce that applications are now open for the PR-Óg Programme 2025!

This dynamic initiative is aimed at young adults aged 16 and over who are passionate about public relations, with a particular focus on social media and digital communications.

What is the PR-Óg Programme?

The PR-Óg Programme offers a unique opportunity for young people to develop key skills in public relations and digital content creation, while also supporting your club or county in promoting the sport we all love and contributing to promoting the Camogie Association at a grassroots level. As a participant, you will be involved in a variety of engaging modules, including:

• Social Media Management
• Canva & Video Editing
• Conducting Interviews
•  Podcast Creation
• Match Reports & Analysis
• Match Programmes

Participants will need to attend online training workshops and complete a range of tasks that will contribute directly to their local club or county’s Public Relations Officer (PRO). This hands-on experience will give you a chance to support your club’s PRO by producing posters, writing match reports, creating social media content, and much more.

All participants will attend three days, one at the start of the programme, a mid-point check in, and one at end of programme, which will examine their leadership skills. They must also attend a mid-point evening session again focusing on their leadership skills. Finally participants must complete at least two modules from themes across the four strands of coaching, officiating, administration and PR/Media between each of those dates, minimum four in total.  Participants may attend more than four modules in total if they wish but it is a minimum of two between each date.
