Féile contests set for drastic revisions

GAA chiefs look set to introduce drastic revisions to their Féile na nGael competitions following “horror stories” of the preparations by some teams in the All-Ireland U14 competitions.

Central Council discussed the matter this month and are hopeful that proposed changes can help rid the event — catering for hurling, football, camogie and girls’ football — of a growing win-at-all-costs mentality.

“Things had got out of hand,” Cork’s Central Council delegate Des Cullinane admitted.
