Robert Emmets win case against London expulsion

 

London club Robert Emmets have succeeded in their case against being removed from the county’s hurling championship. A Disputes Resolution Authority (DRA) panel, which featured former GAA director general Páraic Duffy, last night found that the British GAA’s hearing committee and Central Appeals Committee’s decisions to uphold St Gabriel’s appeal against the result of the clubs’ senior hurling semi-final on the basis of Emmets fielding an illegal player should be rescinded.

Emmets won the game on a penalty shootout.
