Apple Snails in Spain
In Catalonia, in Spain, farmers are worried about apple snails, as they are on farms in the area, and the dangers they pose in harming rice crops. They originate from South America and the farmers have been dealing with the plague since they arrived in 2009. The snails were imported with aquatic creatures when a specialist farm was set up in the middle of the Delta Ebre. In the area, they believe that the snails escaped from here and are now acclimatised to the environment. They can swim and have done great damage to the rice crops.
Comunn Lùth-chleas nan Gà idheil
Chan eil leantainn no cliù aig spòrs sam bith ann an Èirinn mar a th’ aig na Geamaichean Èireannach. Spòrs amaitearach a’ gabhail a-staigh ball-coise Èireannach is iomain Èireannach am measg spòrs eile, is ga ruith le Comunn Lùth-chleas nan Gà idheil (an GAA). Ann am Bail’ Àtha Cliath, tha comharra de neart is cumhachd an GAA – Pà irce Chròcaigh. ‘S e dachaigh an GAA, le à ite airson còrr is 80,000 luchd-leantainnÂ
Tha aona rud a’ dèanamh eadar-dhealachadh eadar an GAA is buidhnean spòrs eile dha mheud san Roinn ·¡Ã²°ù±è²¹ – tha e amaitearach. Chan eil na cluicheadairean a’ faighinn sgillinn ach cosgaisean-siubhail is eile de phà igheadh. Le na geamaichean gan craoladh beò air telebhisean nà iseanta a-nis, is na cluicheadairean a’ dèanamh pailt uimhir trèanaidh ri luchd-spòrs proifeiseanta, tha deasbad ann mu bharrachd dìolaidh a thoirt dhaibh.
Tha Darren Linc air a bhith ann an Èirinn a’ rannsachadh dè tha fainear dhan GAA is na cluicheadairean san ùine ri teachd.
Gaelic Athletic Association
No sport in Ireland has the following and prestige of the Gaelic Games. An amateur group of sports, which includes Gaelic football and hurling, is run by the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA). A striking example of the GAA’s power and status can be found in Dublin’s Croke Park. Home of the GAA, it has room for over 80,000 fans. Full houses can be expected for the big inter-county gamesÂ
One thing separates the GAA from other sporting organisations of a similar size – its amateur status. Players can expect to receive nothing more than basic travel expenses and training support from their club and representatives at the Gaelic Players’ Association. With games now regularly televised live, and players training just as hard, and as often, as professional athletes, there’s a debate as to whether players should be compensated more.
Darren Laing has been to Ireland to investigate what the future holds for the GAA and the players who take part.
