Is there anything they think the GAA need to improve to help the clubs and their volunteers?
The GAA needs to sort out it Club (Juvenile and Senior) games program. We are undermining the conveyor belt that produces the players of the future for both Club and county.
We are competing with other sports and we are not matching them organizationally, we are not offering adequate levels of activity throughout the calendar year. Too much glut and famine.
