All registered players will train together once per week beginning in March, focusing on skills development, fitness, and team play in a fun, social environment.

Starting in April, teams will compete in 7-on-7 recreational matches, culminating in the crowning of the Spring Pub League Champion.

Based on player interest and availability:
• Additional Summer and Fall recreational seasons may be offered.
• If sufficient interest and qualified players emerge from the Pub League, ESGAA may field a Junior B team to compete in the NY GAA Fall Season & Championship. Additional fees for participating may apply.
Annual registration covers participation in all applicable divisions and seasons during the 2026 calendar year.
