In news that is sure to be greeted warmly around the country, Croke Park have informed counties that inter-county Minor and U20 teams can resume full contact training from next Monday, May 10.
There has been some concern raised in recent weeks that the U20 & Minor grades were not included in the initial roadmap for the return of inter-country games, particularly with a number of games still to be played in last year’s Minor championship.
However, Croke Park informed County Boards on Wednesday that full-contact training can resume from Monday next with games in the grades allowed from Monday, June 7, while the Central Competitions Control Committee will publish a schedule in the coming days to complete the outstanding 2020 games as well as dates for the 2021 competitions.
The GAA has confirmed that inter-county senior challenge matches can proceed from tonight.
An earlier date of 10 May had been conveyed but the GAA issued an update this evening confirming this date had been brought forward to 5 May.
Earlier, inter-county minor and under-20 teams received a huge boost with the news that full-contact training can begin from next Monday, 10 May. Games in these cohorts will be permitted from 7 June.
In the coming days, the Central Competitions Control Commitee (CCCC) will also publish a schedule for both the completion of 2020 competitions and dates for 2021 inter-county competitions at the respective levels.
On Tuesday, the Government provided clarity on this area to the GAA, Ladies Gaelic Football Association and Camogie Association.
