Walsh touts cutting ticket prices

MUNSTER Council chairman Sean Walsh last night revealed that they are set to seriously consider reducing ticket prices for senior championship matches in the province for the coming season.

Ahead of Friday night’s annual convention, the Munster GAA chief admitted that the slashing of admission rates will be discussed as they prepare to release their ticket packages for the 2011 campaign in the coming weeks. The economic difficulties faced by supporters around the province will influence their decisions, according to Walsh, as the council seek to cater for everyone.

“The situation is that we as a council, both the financial and management committee, are seriously going to be considering all options for our championship season coming up. We will be putting proposals to the full council very shortly for all ticket prices. We are very much aware about the economic situation and the current situation that families find themselves in. We will not be found wanting for the coming year.
