    Anyone any idea what a set of floodlights for Gaelic Football would cost.

    I'm thinking 300-350lux. probably have to go with the lower recommended height for the poles of 18-20 metres so that would probably mean 8 poles.

    This might be no use to you, but i have heard of clubs who have been approached by phone companies (such as vodafone), who will put up the floodlights for you for free, if they can attach a mast to it.
    Someone else might have more information about it, i heard it in passing in the last week, so will try to get more information on it.

    But it has definitly happened.

    There are a lot of factors you have to consider so it's usually best to get someone to go do a survey for the costs.

    anyway, there's a very good article on the GAA page here, although it's an oldish article, the IRFU have a very good article here
