In that at underage you can play your age group and two levels above.Quote from: cornerback on May 15, 2024, 11:58:03 AMQuote from: trueblue1234 on May 15, 2024, 11:35:59 AMQuick question on age eligibility. In lgfa a child can play one go games age group above their own group (up to u13 in Tyrone). And 2 levels above their group at competitive level - u14 upwards. Would a 12 year old who's playing u13 go games and u14 competitive, be eligible to play u16 as well? As Theres no older go game age group, would she be allowed to play the 2 age groups above at competitive games?
From the 2023 Official Guide:
Underage players can only play in their own age group at Inter-County level for U-14 and
U-16 (Effective 1st January 2024).
At County U-18 level, players may play in their own age group and one grade above. Over
18 grade is deemed an adult grade.
At club level, underage players can only play in their own age group and two grades above
it with grades deemed as Under 12, 14, 16 and 18. All grades Under 10 can only play one
grade above. An Under 8 can play Under 8 and 10. An Under 10 can play Under 10 and
12. An Under 12 can play Under 12, 14, 16. An Under 14 can play Under 14, 16 and 18. An
Under 16 can play Under 16, 18 and Adult and Under 18 can play Under 18 and Adult.
At Inter-County and Club level, players must firstly play and train with their own age group.
Personally, I would have serious reservations with an u12 (potentially P7) playing at u16 level (5th years) but it isn't against the rules. I don't think go-games is a factor as the LGFA deem the age groups at U12, u14 etc.
A 12yo can play U16 but it depends on when the turned 12. If they turned 12 on or before the 31st of Dec 2011 then they're eligible to play U16, but ineligible to play U12.
If they turned 12 on or after 1st of Jan 2012 then they're still eligible to play U12 and ineligible to play U16.
Bottom line is that if a kid is eligible to play U12 in that year then they're ineligible to play U16 that same year.

Everyone was so happy for them. Good people have helped so many families.Quote from: imtommygunn on May 02, 2024, 12:25:36 PMBetween Laochra Gael and GAA Social my wife always asks me why I watch / listen to stuff that's so depressing Seems to be the way of it these days - you want to talk to someone then they need to have some sort of back story. (No a dig at anyone just a marketing thing - I haven't listened to this week's one but IMO the Bells are modern day heroes and are just great people so while I have no doubt it will be a bit sad I'll be very interested to listen to them too).I'd say with the Colin Bell one theres parts that would break your heart but they still manage to have a good laugh in other parts as well, loved the bit about him saying he's meeting lads he played with that are on walking sticks now, sure those are the lads that tracked back and made tackles I didn't bother with that!
Hard to even find superlatives to describe Colin and the service their charity provides tbh, have helped over 1800 families at such a tough time.

No real surprise didn't think they'd risk McKinless from the start and he's a great impact sub.
No Murphy on the bench??

Good angle to show that Lane didn't see the incident at the time. Turn round due to the crowd's reaction
So he turned around, observed a player lying on the ground and an opponent standing over him, but didn't think to stop play to adjudicate.
That seems like good refereeing.
So are you saying you want the referee to stop play every time that situation arises?
So a team on the attack in the final minutes of a game, a player on the defending hits the ground, the crowd reacts, referee stops play, consults all his other officials, nobody seen anything. Play restarts with a free to the attacking team which they aren't allowed to score from and the defending team are now set with everyone back and marking their opponents.
Fair point.
But is he not in communication with his supporting officials, i.e. when a linesman witnesses an actual legitimate assault/incident and informs the referee of the incident. It seemed like the linesman saw that happen yesterday.

Quote from: Wildweasel74 on April 01, 2024, 12:31:09 AMThink that Chrissy McKaigue, the only man to win each of the 4 Divisional titles. Hard believe 5 yrs ago in Ballinascreen. There was only 300 odd supporters at a fball /hurling double header. Surely any lower team got to look at Derry and say why can't we do it too.Don't think he has a division 2 title (despite finishing top of the league)

I wonder how many other teams did.Quote from: seafoid on March 18, 2024, 05:45:28 AMQuote from: imtommygunn on March 17, 2024, 07:03:59 PMKerry and Dublin are the only two with the depth who can pull themselves out of any hole they may find themselves in. The rest take it seriously enough. The likes of Tyrone and maybe Galway have got wake up calls in the league. Tyrone will be better for it but Galway need to keep players like comer and Walsh fit to be all the better for it. A final in it is no big deal though.There are 8 teams in Div 1
Kerry and Dublin make 2
Tyrone and Galway "got wake up calls"
Roscommon and Monaghan didn't "take it seriously"
"the rest" = Mayo and Derry !
Teams getting beat doesn't mean they're not taking it seriously.
