Taoiseach leads tributes for outgoing GAA president

OUTGOING President Sean Kelly was last night honoured in Dublin for his inspired leadership of the GAA over the last three years.

Taoiseach Bertie Ahern led the tributes, saying he had steered the association through a time of “significant change and opportunity.”

Mr Ahern was the guest of honour at a function in the Westbury Hotel in Dublin where, with Vodafone Ireland’s CEO Teresa Elder, he presented Mr Kelly with a special merit award to mark the success of his term as GAA president.
