There is no doubt that both Gaelic football and Aussie Rules are growing in North America. Gaelic football has been established much longer in America, and with Australian footy growing fast, opportunities exist for the sports to work together. The New York football scene is a great example of what might be achieved.
The local NY Championships in Gaelic football and hurling are keenly contested. In recent years New York (wearing a jersey that incorporates a symbol of the NY Fire Department, many of whose fire fighters, some with strong links to the GAA, perished in the twin towers) have competed in the All Ireland Football Championship, though are yet to progress past the first round. This year's North American GAA finals (for teams outside the stronghold of New York) were the biggest yet, held in Denver with 58 adult teams and over 30 junior level games. The teams that played had often won the right in preliminary rounds in their home cities. There was also a North American junior championships held in NY in July, where the large presence of anglo, hispanic and continental names apart from the usual O'Brien's and O'Leary's was noted, as Gaelic football gradually moves into the mainstream of American life.

The growth of Australian Rules footy in North America has been well canvassed on worldfootynews.com, and is increasingly driven by locals rather than expats. This year's nationals, like their Gaelic counterparts, have attracted a large number of teams, as well as AFL heavyweights Kevin Sheedy and General Manager of Game Development, David Matthews.
