AIB has teamed up with former Armagh footballer Justin McNulty and former Galway footballer Paul Clancy to promote a Volunteer VIP competition, which will give 30 winners a chance to secure a money-can’t-buy behind-the-scenes tour of Croke Park on the morning of the All-Ireland Final this Sunday, July 28th.
The tour will include access to the dressing rooms, where players will gear up ahead of the match and pitch-side access to take in the unmatched aura of Croke Park before it is filled with cheering supporters.
The competition winners will also receive coveted tickets to the match, allowing them to experience firsthand what promises to be an epic clash between two great teams.
Entry to the AIB Volunteer VIP competition is open now and will close at midnight on Thursday, July 25th.

This will be the first time the sides have met at this competition stage, and both counties will be looking to bring home the Sam Maguire for the first time in over 20 years.
Armagh toppled Kerry in an epic semi-final that went right to the wire, and after extra-time the Orchard County secured their three-point victory over the Kingdom.
In an equally tight affair, Galway overcame Donegal – a game in which the Tribesmen’s superior accuracy in the final moments proved to be enough to clinch a two-point victory.
Both Kieran McGeeney and Padraig Joyce have tasted All-Ireland glory as players, and now, from the sidelines, they’ll be looking to guide their respective counties to victory on Sunday in Croke Park.
“At AIB, we’re very proud of our partnership with the GAA,” said CEO Colin Hunt.
“We understand that the heart and soul of the All-Ireland Final lies with the fans and volunteers who make it such a special occasion.”
“Their dedication, from the sidelines of club pitches across the country to Croke Park, is what fuels the passion and spirit of Gaelic Games. The AIB Volunteer VIP competition is our way of saying thank you to the individuals who work tirelessly behind the scenes to make it all possible.”
“We would like to wish both Armagh and Galway the very best of luck in Sunday’s historic final.”
“AIB’s unwavering support for the GAA, from the club level to inter-county football, is truly commendable,” added GAA President Jarlath Burns.
“Their Volunteer VIP competition perfectly encapsulates the spirit of the GAA, recognising the invaluable contributions of our volunteers. A thrilling final between Armagh and Galway awaits in what will undoubtedly be a fitting end to another Championship season.”
