'We are half isolated most of the time. This is nothing new to us'

In a community where the “GAA is everything” and “everything goes through the club”, Urhan’s GAA officers were quick into action to ensure nobody would be left stuck during the difficult weeks and, potentially, months ahead.

“Being honest, we are half isolated most of the time. This is nothing new to us,” says Urhan GAA chairman Seamus Sullivan of the restricted lifestyle brought about by Covid-19.

Like so many GAA units across the country, the Urhan club - situated in the heart of the Beara peninsula - continues to function even though the locks have long since gone up at their ground.
