A selection of players from our schoolboy teams are set to feature in an upcoming RTÉ documentary that revisits the departure of Roy Keane from Ireland's 2002 World Cup squad only days before the tournament was due to start. 

The documentary will examine Ireland's chances at the 2002 World Cup in Japan and Korea from the perspective of had Roy Keane not been kicked out of Mick McCarthy's team after their altercation at their training camp in Saipan. 

Filming with our schoolboy players took place last summer when the documentary was in its production phase.

As well as featuring some of our schoolboy players, the documentary includes interviews with Stephanie Roche, Bertie Ahern, Paul Kimmage, Jason McAteer, Shay Given and Mario Rosenstock who will discuss Ireland's last appearance at a World Cup. 

RTÉ One will air 'Saipan - Rebel without a Ball' next Monday, November 21 at 9.35pm.
