‘13-month season’ under review says fixtures committee chair Micheál Martin

The concept of a calendar year season has been queried by the chairman of the GAA’s fixtures review committee Micheál Martin.

The idea of completing all the year’s fixtures in 12 months was strongly supported by former GAA Director General Páraic Duffy and ex-president Aogán Farrell. However, Martin, who is also Wexford vice-chairman, fears it’s too tight a timeframe for dual counties and that a 13-month season would be more feasible.
