The impressive looking Croke Park from the air
It's the Wembley of Gaelic games - before it was knocked down. Every man, woman and child who has ever played Gaelic football, hurling or camogie has dreamed of playing at Croke Park. The stadium has been redeveloped over the last few years to hold 79,500 spectators. Armagh star Oisin McConville first played there in 1996 at a time when the building work was just starting.
Seven years later he still gets a buzz from stepping out onto the hallowed turf and hopes to do so a few more times in his career. Here Oisin tells the Academy what it means to him to play at Croke Park.
