Gary Burke is aiming to raise some vital funds in the process.
A Westmeath man is going a year without alcohol to raise awareness of the effects of post concussion syndrome.
Gary Burke suffers from symptoms such as headaches and dizziness since incurring the injury during a rugby match two years ago.
He's created a GoFundMe page, aiming to raise €2,000 to donate to the Irish concussion and research centre.
The Mullingar spoke about the injury and his experience since with Midlands103's Robert Fahy:
