Clubber will stream more than 2,000 club championship matches across the remainder of 2026, increasing its coverage by 33 per cent year-on-year as the GAA calendar moves decisively from inter-county competition to the club game.
The Irish sports streaming platform has confirmed agreements covering championship action across 15 counties, as well as provincial competitions and an expanding portfolio of international GAA coverage.
The scale of the schedule highlights how club competition is developing into an increasingly important part of the live sports streaming market, extending meaningful subscription content well beyond the traditional summer inter-county season.
Clubber’s county championship coverage in football and hurling will include Carlow, Cork, Kerry, Kildare, Kilkenny, Laois, Longford, Louth, Meath, Monaghan, Offaly, Roscommon, Tipperary, Waterford and Wexford.
The spread gives the platform a presence across all four provinces.
It will also carry provincial championship matches across Camogie, Hurling and Football in Leinster and Munster, adding another layer of high-profile games as county champions progress through the latter stages of the season.
Subscription Offering
Clubber’s Annual Pass is priced at €199.99, with Weekly Passes and individual match packages offering alternative ways to watch.
The proposition is built around volume and local relevance, giving supporters access to their own club while also offering a substantial schedule featuring many leading players from the inter-county season returning to play for their home clubs.
Rob Downey of Glen Rovers, Darragh Corcoran of Ballyhale Shamrocks, Eimear McGrath of Drom & Inch and Brian Stack of St Brigid’s were at FBD Semple Stadium in Thurles for the launch of the 2026 season.
Clubber is also continuing to expand its coverage beyond Ireland.
The platform will provide coverage of USGAA, Boston GAA, San Francisco GAA, Western Australia GAA, and the Pearse’s Sevens tournament in Melbourne.
That international element provides an interesting additional dimension to the business, serving both Irish audiences following Gaelic Games overseas and established GAA communities in international markets.
“Throughout the summer, we’ve seen the power that GAA and Camogie games have had to unite communities at home, and all around the world,” said Clubber CEO Jimmy Doyle.
“The clubs are the lifeblood of the GAA, LGFA and The Camogie Association. We’re honoured to be working with these organisations and County Boards across fifteen counties in all four provinces, to broadcast some of the most famous players in the country playing for their clubs in the coming weeks and months.”
GAA President Jarlath Burns said the increased coverage was helping clubs maintain connections with supporters regardless of where they are based.
“The club is at the heart of the GAA, and this time of year brings that to life in communities across Ireland,” he said.
“Clubber is helping more supporters follow their clubs and enjoy championship action, wherever they are. The scale of coverage this season is a great reflection of the strength of our club game and the passion it inspires at home and around the world.”
Sport for Business Perspective
The growth from approximately 1,500 matches last year to more than 2,000 in 2026 is perhaps the most significant number in the announcement.
Club sport was once largely beyond the reach of supporters who could not make it through the turnstiles. Streaming has changed that equation and created a viable additional audience around competitions whose greatest strength has always been the depth of their local connection.
For Clubber, securing extensive county and provincial rights also creates a substantial content runway from August through the autumn and into the latter stages of the provincial championships.
It is a different proposition from competing for a small number of major national fixtures. The value is in scale, frequency and the ability to aggregate hundreds of intensely interested local communities on one platform.
More than 2,000 live games in a single championship season represents a significant production undertaking, but also demonstrates just how far the market for streamed club GAA has developed.
