A number of leading GAA stars are Africa bound this weekend, as part of an initiative to plant a million trees and raise awareness of the impact that climate change is having on some of the world’s most vulnerable people.
The week-long trip to Kenya by 50 Irish GAA stars will include a showpiece ‘Plant the Planet’ games between the visiting GAA players and Kenyan Premier League football team, AFC
Leopards, as well as visits to Self Help Africa projects, a programme of tree planting activities, and a reception hosted by the Irish Ambassador to Kenya.
Sligo footballer Pat Spillane Jnr, and former Leitrim footballer, Emlyn Mulligan will travel with the group taking part in the Plant The Planet Games.
Speaking to Ocean FM Sport today, Emlyn Mulligan outlined what exactly the group will be getting up to once they land in Kenya.
