O'Donovan Rossa youngster shows off incredible skill with trick-shot

Gaelic footballers and hurlers around the country have been keeping their skills sharp with drills and challenges as matches and training remain suspended.

Among them is Eabha O'Donovan from the O'Donovan Rossa GAA club in Cork.

The Ladies Football LGFA account shared a clip showing her brilliant piece of skill on social media - scoring through a basketball hoop with left and right foot.

Some top inter-county stars have also been showing players across the country how to keep their skills sharp while at home during the coronavirus pandemic.

Dublin footballer Ciaran Kilkenny has posted daily training videos on Twitter, with fellow inter-county players sending on videos of their efforts at Kilkenny's drills.

Kildare's Moorefield GAA shared a clever hurling challenge thought up by one of their younger members as players continue to find creative ways to practice their skills at home.

In the clip, juvenile player Gavin fires a tennis ball on to his roof from his house's back garden before running through the house and collecting it at the front.
