The GAA, Ireland's national sporting organisation, prides itself on its community ethos, which has led to significant growth in recent years.
The Ladies Gaelic Football Association (LGFA) was launched in 1974, and since then, young girls and ladies have been breaking down barriers and earning esteem equal to the men's game.
Lámh Dhearg, a renowned GAA club in West Belfast, celebrated its 20th anniversary of involvement in the LGFA. Aisling McConville, a stalwart of the club, shared her experiences with Belfast Media.
Aisling recounted her early career in the 1990s, where she had to train with the boy's squad of the same age group, as there were no other options available.
