Meath GAA and Meath County Council launch Reusable Bottles Campaign

Meath GAA, in partnership with Meath County Council, launched their first Reusable Bottles Campaign to mark their commitment to environmental responsibility, player wellbeing, and community pride.

At the heart of this campaign is the introduction of high-quality, personalised reusable sports bottles for Meath GAA players. These durable aluminium bottles, featuring a secure plastic lid, are produced by an Irish-owned company and reflect both practicality and environmental consciousness. Each bottle is customised with the player’s name and displays the Meath GAA and Meath County Council logos.

Aga Hutcheson, Chairperson of the Meath GAA Climate Action and Sustainability Committee said "I am privileged and delighted to announce the launch of this campaign. On behalf of myself, Philip McCormack, Jason Plunkett, and everyone in the Climate Action and Sustainability Committee, I would like to thank sincerely Meath County Council for their support. Together, we’re proud to champion a greener future for Gaelic games across the county."

Chief Executive of Meath County Council Kieran Kehoe said "Just like our Meath teams have been leading the way on the field this year, we are delighted to partner with Meath GAA to show, once again, that our county also leads the way when it comes to sustainability and climate action initiatives.

As part of this initiative, Meath GAA is also planning to install a refill station at Dunganny GAA, ensuring that players from our development squads right up to the senior teams can easily refill their bottles without relying on single-use plastics.

"Our vision is simple: no more plastic bottles on our pitches,” Chairperson of Meath GAA County Board Jason Plunkett said. “We hope this campaign encourages clubs, players, and supporters across Meath to embrace reusable options.”
