Never Give Up

A very open and frank account of how to overcome problems by talking to someone and how participation in sport can be used as an outlet for recovery. Playing GAA offers a lifelong bond in communities in every local club. A bond that never goes and can span players with a twenty year age gap. Every local town and village in Ireland will relate to this book and they will feel like they know the author. The author has fire in his belly and passion in his heart which made him stand up and never give up fighting for something he loved.

An extremely passionate and honest account of a small-time Gaelic footballer who gave everything to his local football club but he had to make a few tough decisions along the way. He proves his serious passion with the highs and lows, brutal injuries, verbal abuse, sickness and some very personal setbacks. And all for the love of the game.

The author is also faced with a massive decision in the world of GAA and that is a local transfer to a neighbouring club. Does he sit on a bench for years with his home club, retire or continue to play which would mean a transfer? This brave footballer tells all and how he overcomes his personal setbacks by looking for the help needed and to come back even stronger. He hits rock bottom but finds the strength to bounce back.

A great fun read that will make you laugh and cry and cheer for the author to keep going.
