GAA: O’Keeffe challenges Grant in surprise move for Waterford chair

THE longest serving GAA county secretary in the country, Waterford’s Seamas Grant, is facing a surprise contest at Monday night’s annual convention in Dungarvan.

Clashmore’s Timmy O’Keeffe is challenging the highly-regarded, Grant, who has served for 32 years, but it will be a sensation if he manages to win.

Tomorrow night Grant is being honoured by the Munster Council as winner of the “excellence in administration’’ award - one of a number being presented at a function in Limerick.
