Rules in the spotlight again

It’s almost that time of year again when clubs put forward motions to county conventions, but 2014 is slightly different.

As 2015 is a playing rules year, clubs will be entitled to devise proposals to alter football and hurling.

If you remember earlier this year Clarinbridge had their recommendation to ban the use of oversized hurleys in scoring pulled. Outside 2010, 2015, 2020 and so on, only the standing playing rules committee and specially commissioned groups such as the Football Review Committee and the Hurling 2020 committee can draft motions to Congress on the laws that dictate Gaelic games.
