Camogie star Grace Walsh believes it is "very sad" to learn of children feeling pressurised and not enjoying their participation in sport.
There have been numerous negative stories emerging in recent weeks concerning the GAA, with many parents complaining of their child's exclusion from team games at the hands of coaches who opt not to play them in football, hurling or camogie matches.
And on the other hand, coaches have reported that many parents are placing an extreme amount of pressure on their kids and expecting an excessive amount from them in their training and matches.
