11/365: Cian Griffin in Phoenix Park

Let me preface this by saying I know nothing about sports, but this project for me is all about inclusiveness and making sure that everyone feels represented in some way.This is something that Cian Griffin and I agree on. I meet him early (for me) on a Saturday morning on the pitches at the Phoenix Park where he's about to train with his GAA club, Na Gaeil Aeracha. Founded in 2020, Na Gaeil Aeracha is the world's first explicitly LGBTQ+ inclusive GAA team, and an extremely successful one at that.The team has given Cian a community in Dublin, one that he didn't have easy access to growing up in rural Ireland, and through his work in the media (and his hilarious social pages) Cian is also spreading the Irish language, ensuring the gay gaeilgeoirí are well and truly represented!The team are currently recruiting if you're interested - RuthSin Scéal Eile - That's Another Story was hosted and created by Ruth Medjber, with sound by Ronan Lally. The podcast is produced by Dee Reddy at Poddle Audio with original music by Elaine Mai. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
