Daly proposals aim to strike balance between club and county

THE GAA is open to the accusation that it is reneging on its responsibility to club players by continuing to embrace an inter-county structure that restricts their games activity.

The challenge now for the association, maintains head of games Pat Daly, is to achieve the optimum balance between club and county.

“It’s not going to be easy, it never was easy,’’ he says. “It’s becoming impossible at the moment to maintain the current structure, if we are in the business of promoting games and if the club is the basic unit,’’ he says.
