Between the split season, the new football rules and integration of the three organisations which oversee Gaelic games, the GAA is evolving at a pace that few would have expected decades and generations ago.
The split season has been with us for a while, and we have been experiencing the new football rules since the Allianz League started five weeks ago, so those two movements - if you want to call them that - are tangible and real.
The quietest of all the new developments is integration. It is happening, even though we haven't seen it yet, but by all accounts, we will.
The magic number is 2027 when the destination will be reached and integration will become a reality.
It is a massive leap of faith by the Camogie Association and the Ladies Gaelic Football Association.
If everything goes according to plan, they will no longer exist as independent bodies but will all come under the umbrella of the Gaelic Athletic Association.
Both associations have done incredible work for their respective sports, but there is, in most quarters, a genuine feeling that this is the right move for both.
Complexities in the integration process
In February 2024, the Steering Committee on Integration announced the vision for integration as "one association for Gaelic games by 2027".
Working groups were established to consider practical implications and actions and the commencement of projects, which will ensure the implementation of integration along with ongoing engagement with the Government to provide updates on the process.
The working groups over the last 13 months have focused on areas such as communications, facilities, finance, fixtures, games development, HR, membership and match officials, to name just a few.
Even listing these out here gives a clear indication of the complexities that exist in this integration process, but while there might be some difficulties along the way, none really are insurmountable.
"The Gaelic games integration project is now well on course to deliver the support, hopes and ambitions of the overwhelming majority of members of all three associations, which were emphatically expressed in the groundbreaking survey commissioned by the steering group," Dr McAleese said in a statement.
"For them, integration guarantees the best, most dynamic, sustainable and exciting future. When in February 2024 we announced the vision statement for integration, we set a timeline that would lead to integration by 2027.
"We advised that there would be considerable work needed to align all the many moving parts and that work has been ongoing ever since, and at pace."
Enthusiastic about the journey ahead
In her interview with me in Croke Park, Ms McAleese emphasised that by 2027, there will be one organisation, one membership and "equality of membership all the way down the line".
The Steering Group on Integration (SGI) is made up of three association presidents; Brian Molloy from the Camogie Association, GAA President Jarlath Burns, and Mícheál Naugton from the LGFA.
Also on the SGI are the three director generals: Sinéad McNulty from the Camogie Association, the LGFA's Helen O'Rourke and the GAA's Tom Ryan.
The Project Manager is Mark Dornan and Project Coordinator is Aoibhe Dunne, with Dr McAleese as Chairperson.
When I spoke to them, all three presidents were enthusiastic about the journey that was ahead for all three associations.
It was GAA President Jarlath Burns that emphasised that he thought the "biggest sacrifice" would be made by the Camogie Association and LGFA and they would have to be there to "match that leap of faith".
He also said the important ingredient for everybody involved was trust, which he said was there in abundance to promote all Gaelic Games under one umbrella.
Brian Molloy and Mícheál Naughton were equally effusive about integration and that it was the right thing to do for both organisations.
Incidentally, this weekend the LGFA's annual congress will take place in Letterkenny, Co Donegal when Mícheál Naughton's four year term comes to an end and Trina Murray from Moate in Co Westmeath takes over as president.
She will become the 14th President of the LGFA since its inception in 1974.
