The BBC are set to be one of the big winners in the next round of GAA media rights, the Irish Examiner has learned.

The broadcasters are in line to receive live international access to All-Ireland semi-finals and finals from next year on top of their Northern Ireland channel’s continuing coverage of the Ulster senior football championship and in addition possibly latter stage championship fixtures involving Ulster counties.
