Réabhlóid GAA is a documentary about hurling during the 1990s. The title translates into English as " GAA Revolution". [1]

The period covered marked a transition from the dominance of the sport's traditional "big three" ( Cork, Kilkenny and Tipperary) to the emergence of Offaly, Clare and Wexford as All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship winners in successive years. [1] Offaly began the run by winning their third title with a comeback victory over Limerick in 1994. [1] Clare then won a first title since 1914 in 1995, while Wexford won a first title since 1968 in 1996, Clare following with another title in 1997. [1] The 1998 Clare v Offaly trilogy is also covered. [4]

Former Wexford hurler Diarmuid Lyng narrated. [1] [5] TG4 first aired Réabhlóid GAA on 16 December 2020. [6] [7] The broadcaster repeated it on 17 March 2021 ( Saint Patrick's Day). [8]
