Dublin club appeals for fairness after forfeiting game over Covid fears

Clanna Gael Fontenoy request for deferral, after Ballyboden player tested positive for coronavirus, turned down by county board 

 

Dublin club Clanna Gael Fontenoy argues that their players have been punished for “playing it safe” with Covid-19, after the club failed to gain a reprieve having forfeited last Sunday’s Dublin JHC game to Ballyboden St Enda’s.

Clanna Gael Fontenoy had requested a deferral of the match having learned, the Friday before the game, that a Ballyboden player had tested positive for the coronavirus.
