Páraic Duffy shoots down Munster U25 decision

The Munster Council’s decision to introduce an U25 hurling championship has been given the thumbs-down by GAA director general Páraic Duffy.

Duffy is against the establishment of any new inter-county competitions, although the U25 concept replaces the intermediate championship.

“I don’t favour any more inter-county competitions – I think we’ve got enough. But, look, we brought a motion to Congress to abolish intermediate and junior (inter-county), which narrowly failed but I just don’t want to see any more inter-county competitions.”
