Club claims Cork are missing out on €30,000 annual grant

Freemount GAA Club is to continue attempts to persuade the Cork County Board to avail of a €30,000 annual grant when a new county secretary is appointed.

Under GAA rules, a contribution can be made if a county allows Croke Park to take control of the employment, recruitment, and selection process, and contracts are limited to seven years.

Cork and Dublin are the only two counties with full-time secretaries who do not draw down such a grant.
