Call for GAA to keep 2020 limits on inter-county game

RTÉ GAA reporter
Despite Covid-19 playing havoc with the GAA s administration and its fixtures programme, Connacht CEO John Prenty says the pandemic has helped the association to stumble on a new formula for the years ahead.
In his annual report to the upcoming provincial convention, Prenty recounts how his council had many plans and projects ready for a new decade but saw them thrown into disarray within two months of the start of 2020.

CONNACHT GAA SECRETARY JOHN Prenty says the pandemic forced county boards into cost-saving measures which should be retained to curb the rising costs of preparing inter-county teams.
In the provincial council’s annual report, Prenty noted how a “high quality” All-Ireland championship took place in 2020 despite team costs being a fraction of the previous year. ....

Calls for inter-county training to be capped at three times per week

CONNACHT Council CEO John Prenty wants inter-county training sessions capped at three per week – and just two in the week of a game – as the GAA absorbs the harsh new financial realities brought about by Covid-19.
Prenty suggests that, as a fringe benefit of the pandemic, the GAA may have “stumbled upon a formula” to slow down the “runaway train” of the inter-county game and the spiralling costs associated with team preparation.
