A meeting of Central Council on Saturday will hear motions calling for the January competitions to be revived
Ulster GAA chiefs have called a meeting on Thursday evening for counties across the province to discuss the possibility of reinstating the preseason league competitions for the 2025 season.
A decision was taken at Central Council’s September meeting to cancel those competitions for 2025, but with the Football Review Committee’s proposed rule changes to be operational from January there has been a groundswell of support to overturn that ruling. “You are no doubt aware that following requests from a couple of counties, there will be a motion before the Central Council meeting on Saturday to rescind the decision of the September Central Council meeting which agreed to postpone the preseason competitions for one year,” stated a note circulated to counties by Ulster.
