Leitrim club calls for TV match officials rollout

TELEVISION match officials (TMOs) could be in use in championship hurling and football games next summer if a proposal from a club in Leitrim is successful.

The Sean O’Heslins club in Ballinamore tabled a motion for Sunday’s Leitrim convention calling for the Central Council of the GAA to implement “on-the-spot video evidence” to be used, where possible, in championship games in 2012.

Club executive member and PRO Sean Ó Suilleabháin said their proposal was aimed at getting rid of controversial scores and should be used in conjunction with Hawk-Eye.
