Rule aims to weaken handpass ‘reflex’: Rules Chairman

The GAA’s playing rules committee chairman David Hassan says teams will have to get creative to overcome the three handpass limit in the forthcoming pre-season and Allianz League competitions.

As the GAA yesterday confirmed they will meet with the GPA to discuss the latter’s concerns about the five experimental rules being trialled in the league, Hassan pointed out GPA president David Collins was on the playing rules group that recommended them and the process to introduce the changes was done in “an open, transparent process”.
