Mickey Graham credits ‘lifestyle coaching’ for Cavan renewal

Cavan manager Mickey Graham has credited former goalkeeper and mental health advocate Alan O’Mara with playing a key role in the county’s resurgence this summer.

Graham, Dermot McCabe, and Martin Corry is the coaching triumvirate which has taken Cavan to a first Ulster SFC final in 18 years, but the invaluable work being done behind the scenes by O’Mara, who has spoken publicly about his mental health problems, is proving inspirational to the players.
