GAA urged to do more on mental health

The GAA has been urged to increase efforts to help young players battling with mental health issues, after a new documentary found that clubs across the country losing members to suicide on a weekly basis.

As excitement builds up ahead of tomorrow’s All-Ireland final, a TV investigation has discovered that GAA organisations are being impacted by tragedies, mainly involving young men.

Ainle Ó Cairealláin, presenter of the TG4 documentary, travelled to Galway, Antrim, and Tyrone, to see how clubs had been affected by recent cases.
