WATCH: This documentary about Crossmaglen Rangers is an absolute must-see for all GAA fans

Crossmaglen Rangers as you've never seen them before.

Under the managemen of Joe Kiernan, Crossmaglen Rangers ended a 10-year famine to claim the Armagh county title in 1996. That achievement marked the beginning of an extensive run of success for the club, which included six All-Ireland titles since 1997.

Oisin McConville and John McEntee - who also went on to win an All-Ireland with Armagh - played an instrumental part of those famous feats and they have since taken up managerial positions in the club.

They have been entrusted with the responsibility of maintaining title-winning standards in Crossmaglen with a new generation of talent. And the documentary Cross Rangers - Field of Dreams, tells the remarkable story of how this club overcame the troubles in Northern Ireland to become one of the most successful teams in GAA.

Cross Rangers - Field of Dreams will be televised this Monday on BBC.

Here's a sneak preview of what promises to be the sports documentary of the year.It includes some brilliant moments, like when Jamie Clarke explains his decision to leave for New York during Crossmaglen’s county championship run last summer. “I just feel there’s a lot more to me than living in a rural town,” he says.Or when a nine-day pre-match alcohol ban is imposed but then broken by three players who attended a wedding on one occasion and by John Murtagh on another.'True North: Cross Rangers - Field of Dreams' BBC's excellent documentary on the club, will be screened next Monday at 9pm.
