A new organisation aiming to be an active and progressive voice for all Adult GAA Club Players has been launched today in Dublin at the home of All-Ireland Club Football Champions Ballyboden St. Enda's.
Players are encouraged to register for the Club Players Association at http://www.gaaclubplayers.com
One of the aims of the association is to tighten the inter-county playing season, and to have the All-Ireland Championships wrapped up by the August Bank Holiday weekend.
Cóilín Duffy spoke at today's launch to Tuam Stars man Michael Higgins, who is the CPA's registration and IT Co-ordinator.
