Burnout debate is a complex issue, insists Model boss Ryan

WEXFORD football manager Jason Ryan accepts that the GAA is trying to address the burnout issue but reckons that there is no ‘one-size fits all’ solution.

Ryan was one of the most vocal critics of the winter training ban last season but has thawed a little on the subject in the intervening period.

The topic of burnout raised its head again this week. Or more specifically, the GAA’s implementation, if not enforcement, of a collective training ban for inter-county teams in November and December.
