A recent survey of more than 3,600 inter-county players by the Gaelic Players Association found that 20% of men and 4% of women knew team-mates struggling with drug misuse.
On a broader societal level, drug addiction is now a problem in every town and village countrywide.
Cuan Mhuire Addiction Treatment Centre in Athy currently has a waiting list of 109 men and 60 women seeking treatment for drug addiction, mainly cocaine addiction.
The same treatment centre had just nine people on a waiting list ten years ago.
