How did you first get involved in playing GAA Football?
Our club held an under 10 blitz every weekend during the summer months so started to go along to that when I was seven or eight.

What is your earliest memory of playing with your local club?
Getting changed in an old tin container at the side of our local pitch and sitting on bags of sheep nuts to get kitted out.

How much of an influence did your club and club members have on
you?
Ever since a young age I always had great support, advice, coaching, and friendship from all club members and still get all that from them.

How important do you think your GAA club is to your community?
Extremely important, our club have a great under-age ladies and mens’ structure with great facilities to accommodate everyone and I think its very important to get them out at 7 or 8 years of age like they did when I was that age.
