GAA stadium vote will give ‘impetus’ to World cup bid
With 93% of delegates voting in favour of the motion, Congress in Derry on Saturday wholeheartedly endorsed giving Central Council the power to authorise the use of Croke Park and other GAA stadiums for the tournament should it be staged here.
The vote was complimented by Minister for Transport, Tourism & Sport Leo Varadkar and Minister of State for Tourism and Sport Michael Ring while the IRFU, who asked the GAA to put the motion on the Clár, added their gratitude.
