Photograph: Matt Browne/SportsfileFemale intercounty players are escalating their equality protest by refusing to participate in any media events organised by the Ladies’ Gaelic Football Association or Camogie Association for the remainder of their All-Ireland championships.
Both governing bodies would have planned on hosting media events for the latter stages of their respective championships, but the players have now stated they will not be available to promote the games at such gatherings. The news comes less than 24 hours after the GPA claimed the GAA had prevented the four All-Ireland SHC semi-finalists from displaying a banner at Croke Park last weekend in support of equality for female players.
The GAA have denied those claims, and it will be interesting to note if the four football semi-finalists will hold a #UnitedForEquality banner for the team photos prior to their matches at Croke Park this weekend.
