On St Patrick's Day 2020, Taoiseach Leo Varadkar announced that Ireland was locking down. The Coronavirus pandemic had arrived. Our lives, purpose and favourite pastime as Irish people - meeting each other - stopped overnight. But throughout that dark time, the GAA was at the epicentre of the country's fightback against Covid-19. 20,000 volunteers helped out 35,000 vulnerable neighbours and friends with food and medicine deliveries during lockdown. Croke Park and other major stadia transformed into testing centres, the Association went online to keep people connected and the GAA became a beacon of hope. This is the incredible story of how the GAA and its people managed to endure this deepest of struggles and re-emerge to fight another day.
