Malcolm Rae and Phil Cooper went across to Cork City University at the invite of Martin Lawlor
The invite allowed Phil to go through the State of Mind presentation with a view to a return in March to deliver a session to sport students from the university and explore its application for the Gaelic Athletic Association and Irish Rugby Union and League
It is Ireland’s largest sporting organisation and is celebrated as one of the great amateur sporting associations in the world today.
The GAA is a volunteer led, community based organisation that promotes Gaelic games such as Hurling, Football, Handball and Rounders and works with sister organisations to promote Ladies Football and Camogie.
It is part of the Irish consciousness and plays an influential role in Irish society that extends far beyond the basic aim of promoting Gaelic games
State of Mind were honoured to be invited and have the opportunity to come across the to the great city of Cork and look forward to our return in March 2014
