The Tasmanian Gaelic Football and Hurling Association (TGFHA) was established in 2007[1] and is the ruling body for Gaelic Football and Hurling in the Australian state of Tasmania. The TGFHA is affiliated to the Gaelic Football and Hurling Association of Australasia where it is represented by a Vice-President.

The TGFHA runs weekly training and matches for both males and females in Gaelic Football at the North Chigwell Sports Ground during summer to avoid clashes with traditional winter sports such as Association Football and Australian Football. The TGFHA hopes to encourage involvement in Hurling in the future.

The TGFHA sends male and female Gaelic Football teams to interstate competitions annually.[2]
