Irish man Sean Ó Gallagher, living and working in Germany, and captain of the E-sports team "Racing Without Borders" asked the Belgian Project for his assistance to recruit some Zwift riders for his new women's team...already 2 Irish women have signed up with Hazel Smyth-Irish Masters Champ & TT records holder, and ex Irish RR Champ Heather Foley!! Men also welcome for his team!!

Introducing Sean O’Gallagher, works at Paracelsus-Gymnasium Hohenheim Plieningen-Birkach, and triathlon & Zwift athlete

Here Sean’s request for help: “Hi Dany, we don’t know each other but I was very happy to receive your birthday wishes recently. I often see the pictures of Irish cycling that you post. I am the captain and a rider myself for the e sports team Racing Without Borders. We are an Irish team and our men are among the elite in e sport. Now I have founded a women’s team and already have six strong female riders as well. Unfortunately only two Irish women so far. Heather Foley and Hazel Smyth. I was wondering if you could help me recruit young Irish women riders to the team – men are welcome too. I am Irish, but I grew up in Germany and I also originally come from triathlon, so I don’t have any contacts in Irish cycling. Especially in autumn and winter, Zwift is a good alternative for cyclists and we usually manage to supply our top riders with real life gear very cheaply. They could also earn some pocket money if our women’s team were to be accepted into the elite “Grand Prix” league. Our mens elite team is one of the best in esports with riders involved like Stuart Millar, Ronan Killeen, Nathan Mullan, Keane Ryan, British Pro Matthew Kingston, Irish German top Bundesliga rider Jack Morrissey and more, so we recruit some men too to join the team!!
Anyways, don’t want to bother you much longer – hope to hear back from you. Best Sean
