The RTE sports presenter says hosting the GAA highlights show has been a 'whirlwind'
The Sunday Game host Jacqui Hurley has said “ GAA should be for all of us” as she reveals a lot of viewers air their frustrations over GAA GO to her.
Jacqui told us: “It has gone by in a whirlwind. It has been insane… I guess just the way everything happened… it just feels like I’ve been on a relentless treadmill since the start of 2022. “The most common thing that comes up are ‘I can’t believe you went for your man for Hurler of the Year or Footballer of the year’ or whatever it is or this guy didn’t get into the team.
She said: “I always enjoy those conversations. The way I feel about it is, the GAA should be for all of us. It is a community thing that we are all part of and we should all be entitled to have an opinion on it so trust me, when people stop me on the street, I am not running away from them. I am enjoying the conservation and the chats. It has been great fun.”“It’s time to find that shoebox and get involved”, she said.
Jacqui added: “Let’s get together and bring hope and joy to as many children as possible. It’s so easy to get involved and each year this simple act of kindness, filling a shoebox with gifts to bring a smile to a child’s face, lets these children know that they are in the heart and minds of the people of Ireland.”
Speaking about the campaign, Theresa Wood, Team Hope Christmas Shoebox Appeal Manager said: “Thanks so much for your continued support. The Appeal only happens due to the amazing kindness of people across the country, both those who create the boxes, but also the thousands of volunteers who look after the coordination.
