County Board opens up debate on Cork future

Cork GAA club representatives will be given a chance to air their opinions on the future direction of the county at an open discussion meeting to be held at the end of September.

At last night’s county board meeting at the Nemo Rangers complex, chairman Ger Lane revealed the strategic review committee charged with putting together a report by the end of October held a lot of meetings and will now seek to canvass wider views.

Saturday, September 24 will see that open meeting held at the home of Éire Óg in Ovens. Each club will be entitled to send three delegates – one representing its adult club, one representing its juvenile club and a player. While strategic review committee chairman Richard Murphy indicated it was the preference of the board the delegates be either a club chairman or secretary, under questioning from delegates it was agreed other club members may be permitted once approval is given.
