Further protest by female GAA players as media events altered

The Gaelic Players Association has said it will organise any media events to take place in the run up to the conclusion of the Women's football and camogie championships rather than them going through the associations.

In a statement, the GPA said "inter-county female players have decided not to take part in media events organised by the LGFA or Camogie Association in advance of games in the closing stages of the All-Ireland championships."

They say the decision was taken collectively on a call of squad representatives and captains yesterday.

Inter-county camogie and women's football panels have stated that they are playing the remainder of the season "under protest" and warned not to expect "business as usual".

The protest is calling for minimum standards for the collective welfare of female Gaelic Games players.

A number of protests have already taken place, including during last weekend’s camogie matches.
