How does it reflect on the GAA that in this day and age, female footballers and camogie players are on our television screens week in, week out having to hold protests at matches to try to get basic minimum standards in place? I acknowledge and support the women camogie players and footballers. Will the GAA intervene? Clearly, it cannot wash its hands of this particular issue because when it is promoting games, the GAA leverages women and women’s participation for ticket sales. What interaction is the GAA having with the Gaelic Players Association, GPA?
