Over 100,000 young players, coaches, parents and volunteers. That's more than enough to fill Croke Park.

In partnership with the GAA and Gaelic Players Association, Ahead of the Game has now been delivered to over 17,500 participants across GAA clubs in Ireland, contributing to a global 100,000.

That's young players aged 12–18 learning how to look after their own mental fitness and have their teammates' backs when things get tough. It's coaches, parents and volunteers building skills to spot the signs of mental health challenges, the confidence to check in and know exactly where to turn for help when young people need it most.

And it's all thanks to the fundraising done by you. Watch the full-length video here 👉 https://bit.ly/4pRUikr

"Don't be afraid of the dark days. They pass."

This is what Movember Ahead of the Game is about: current and former GAA players using their own experience so the next generation finds it easier to ask for help, and to offer it.

When dads are supported, everyone wins.

Dads who take paternity leave have better mental health, stronger bonds with their kids, and are better placed to support their partners when it matters most. So when Ireland is fifth-from-bottom in the EU for supporting new fathers, this isn't just a policy issue, it's a health issue.

Our Extra Time with Dad report lays it all out. And it calls on the Government to act: establish a dedicated Paternity Leave Working Group and give dads in Ireland the time, the financial support, and the conditions to be there from day one.

The numbers don't lie.

3 in 5 Irish dads feel society doesn't take their mental health seriously. 1 in 4 rate their own mental health as fair or poor. And 1 in 5 took no paternity leave at all, because financially, they just couldn't afford to.

Dads want to be there. The system isn't making it easy.

We've published our Extra Time with Dad report, because this is a health issue, not just a policy one. Read it. Share it. Be part of the solution. 👉 https://ie.movember.com/men-s-health/men-s-health-week
