Irish Thighs are Smilin': The D.C. Gaels

Even though Gaine — and many of her teammates — had never played before joining the Gaels, they apparently have the luck of the Irish. They’re the defending national champions, and they’re headed to the mid-Atlantic regionals this weekend.


“It’s just so simple,” says Andrew Healy, who founded the Gaels in 1988 after he moved from the Emerald Isle to Washington and couldn’t find anyone to play his favorite sports with. “All it is is that they have natural ability, and we show them how to punch the ball and kick it.”
