Ancient sports for children in Ireland's most ethnically diverse town. • Ballyhaunis in the west of Ireland is at first glance a traditional farming town, a place that in the past has been deeply affected by the emigration of its young. • But today Ballyhaunis is unique in an Irish context. The majority of children in the local community school speak neither English nor Gaelic at home due to waves of inward migration from Pakistani, eastern European and African communities. • The local policeman Darran Conlon has a mission. He is trying to teach the younger generation of these immigrants how to play traditional Gaelic games, not only to help welcome them to the community but also to simply ensure that the local club – the lifeblood of the town – can actually field a team. • More documentaries ► http://www.theguardian.com/documentaries • Subscribe to The Guardian ► http://is.gd/subscribeguardian • Become a Guardian supporter ► http://bit.ly/GDNmembers • The Guardian ► https://www.theguardian.com • Suggested videos: • Erica: Man Made ► http://bit.ly/EricaManMade • Battle for Mosul ► http://bit.ly/MosulDoc • Radical Brownies ► http://bit.ly/RadicalBrowniesFilm • Desert Fire ► http://bit.ly/DesertFire • 6x9: experience solitary confinement ► http://bit.ly/6x9gdn • Gun Nation ► http://bit.ly/GunNationDoc • We Walk Together ► http://bit.ly/WeWalkTogetherFilm • The last job on Earth ► http://bit.ly/LastJobOnEarth • Patrick Stewart: the ECHR and us ► http://bit.ly/PatrickStewartS • Guardian playlists: • Guardian Bertha Documentaries ► http://bit.ly/GuardianBertha • In my opinion ► http://bit.ly/InMyOpinion • Owen Jones meets ► http://bit.ly/CorbynJones • US elections 2016 ► http://bit.ly/elections2016gdn • Guardian Animations Explanations ►http://is.gd/explainers • Guardian Investigations ► http://is.gd/guardianinvestigations • The Guardian's YouTube channels: • Owen Jones talks ► http://bit.ly/subsowenjones • Guardian Football ► http://is.gd/guardianfootball • Guardian Science and Tech ► http://is.gd/guardiantech • Guardian Culture ► http://is.gd/guardianculture • Guardian Wires ► http://is.gd/guardianwires
