Captains of the 31 ladies football squads represented by the GPA met on a video call on Tuesday evening where it was agreed unanimously that players support a Galway motion and are therefore calling on their respective counties to vote in its favour.

The GPA has urged counties to support a motion calling on the LGFA to “unite” with the GAA, at this weekend’s Ladies Football Congress.

Rule 13 of the LGFA Official Guide states that the association “should co-operate with other organisations with aims similar to its own”.
