Oisín McConville is one of the most accomplished figures in Gaelic football, having won the sport’s top honours at both club and county level. He played a pivotal role in Armagh’s historic All-Ireland Championship victory and secured six All-Ireland Senior Club Football titles with Crossmaglen Rangers, establishing himself as a standout talent on the field.
However, Oisín’s journey hasn’t been defined by sporting success alone. Behind the scenes, he battled a serious gambling addiction that brought him to the brink. His decision to seek help led him to spend 13 weeks in residential rehab, a turning point that not only saved his life but set him on a new path.
Since then, he has become a passionate advocate for gambling awareness and mental health. As a trained addictions counsellor and Gambling Care ambassador, he has worked with hundreds of athletes across Ireland and the UK, supporting them through similar challenges and helping them navigate recovery.
Oisín is also a highly sought-after public speaker. His talks are known for their honesty, emotional impact, and practical insight, drawing from his own lived experience to connect deeply with audiences. Whether speaking to corporate teams, sports organisations, or student groups, he offers a powerful message of resilience, vulnerability, and hope.
