PSNI and Garda in landmark GAA clash

A team from the North's police service is due to travel to Dublin today for the first ever official Gaelic football game involving members of the British security services.

The match will take place at 3pm at the Garda Sports Complex in Westmanstown and will be watched by Garda Commissioner Pat Byrne and Hugh Orde, the PSNI chief constable.

Until recently, members of the British army and Northern police were banned from membership of GAA clubs under the controversial Rule 21.
