[4] Ringland is also active with Peace Players International, an organisation devoted to promote inter-religious unity in Belfast through sport.
Upon Elliott's election as party leader, Ringland publicly asked the new leader if he would be prepared to attend a Gaelic Football All-Ireland Final in Dublin if an Ulster team were to take part;[7] Elliott refused, stating that attending a sporting event on a Sunday would conflict with his religious views.
