THE GAA will not take a decision on the future sponsorship of the All-Ireland senior hurling championship until later in the year.

AFTER almost a decade, Fleadh Cheóil na hÉireann returns to Clonmel next month.

GAA chiefs will meet with Guinness later this year to discuss the future sponsorship of the All-Ireland Hurling Championships.

GUINNESS in Ireland is continuing to pump millions into its Irish operations to counter the dip in consumption of the black stuff.
