The final round of GAA referee fitness retesting was conducted in Mallow, Co Cork, on Tuesday night, with all seven officials meeting the criteria to return to frontline duty this weekend.

The tests on Munster officials followed weekend retesting on officials in the other provinces, necessitated by a slew of fitness failures at Abbotstown last month.
