* Philip O’Connor’s “A Parish Far From Home” from Stockholm GAA , Sweden examines setting up a new club and gives a great representation of European County Board (GAA)
* Denis O’Brien from GaelicSportsCast looking into the Hurling Revolution in America among native players especially.
* Eamonn Gormley and his book Waiting to Launch which has a vision of a GAA of the future and predicts what obstacles may lie ahead of the GAA getting Olympic recognition, a World Cup of Gaelic games and the GAA spreading the games to a worldwide audience…”
