The reality is, in terms of Gaelic games, and here, going back to the whole integration issue, it's going to become an increasingly bigger challenge because what we're seeing now in the club and the Harps, you get all these girls' teams, which is brilliant, and they're growing. voice-verified

They all need coaches. voice-verified

So we now, at this point in time, probably need about 100 coaches in the club to cover all the various games. voice-verified

Go on. voice-verified

I've been at that sort of pivot point for the last four or five years. voice-verified

You're moving out of development into competitive. voice-verified

My boys are at that age. voice-verified
