GAA under fire over child ticket prices

THE GAA have come under fire for charging children as young as five years old 20 to watch fringe championship games.

Parents who bring their children into the stand for All-Ireland qualifiers find they can’t get a family rate.

The GAA say this occurs because when a stand is bookable, one rate applies to all seats. The decision on whether a stand is bookable or not is made on a match-by-match basis.
