The father of Derry woman Lisa Orsi, a Gaelic footballer who died during a holiday in Indonesia eight years ago, has spoken of his delight in helping bring the GAA World Games to her home town.
Lisa Orsi, who played for Ardmore in Derry and had represented her county before moving abroad, was 22 years old when she became acutely ill with altitude sickness on a volcano trek in 2015 and sadly died.
Her father, Dennis Orsi, has been working behind the scenes through a foundation set up in his daughter's memory to bring the World Games to Derry city - as a way of both honouring Lisa's legacy and as a showcase of the vibrancy and diversity of Gaelic games worldwide.
