The South Africa Gaels have been all over the country since they landed on Friday

Next stop, Abu Dhabi

The South Africa Gaels trip to Ireland 2015 is almost complete but before they head off to compete in the GAA World Games in Abu Dhabi, they have one more game to play.

Tonight, in Naomh Mearnog in Portmarnock in Dublin, the team wrap up their tour with a game against an International All Stars Team.

But whatever the result tonight, this trip has been another huge success, and great fun too. This video catches all the highlights, from their rapturous arrival at Dublin Airport, to schooling Michael Darragh MacAuley in a kicking challenge to a bracing visit to beautiful Clare Island to a trip to the home of Mayo GAA, McHale Park.

The team’s love of the game, and of Ireland, shines through and we know we’ll be backing them in Abu Dhabi at the weekend.

ESB International, which is celebrating 40 years in business this year, is once again sponsoring their tour.
