Fermanagh GAA has led the tributes to tragic young Belcoo footballer Oisin McGrath.

13-year-old Oisin was injured while playing football during his lunch break at St Michael's College in Enniskillen on Monday and The Belfast Trust confirmed his death shortly before 7.30pm last night.

In a statement, the County Committee said they 'are greatly saddened to learn of the death of Oisin McGrath.

'We extend our sympathy to Oisin's parents, Sharon and Nigel, sisters Cairenn and Ciana, the McGrath and Dolan families and the members of his club Belcoo O'Rahilly's at this most difficult time.

'We also express our condolences to Oisin's classmates at St Michaels College and the entire St Michaels College community. Our thoughts and prayers are with them all at this sad time.

'Go ndeana Dia trócaire ar a anam uasal'.
