Surely the reserve start will be reconsidered. Clubs will be playing a lot of seniors throughout there reserve teams

Hopefully. Personally I think it's a terrible idea. In theory from someone looking from the outside in it could work. When you get down to the nuts and bolts of it, it won't.

1st. You can't just give a months notice and say oh yeah reserve leagues start then. Managers and players have plans and schedules made up and in place gearing towards an expected May start like the last 2 or 3 years. Training will now be impacted with the smaller clubs will be down 10 or 12 senior players training as will leave the training having to be split.

2nd, when are these games going to be played? Friday night suited most players well as gave the option of Sunday off. But if they are Friday night again that means Sunday won't be free as how can a team train Friday night if half the team are away playing a game, which means can't train Thursday night, so Sunday's and Tuesday will be the only option to get an entire squad training together.


3rd, the reserve players will lose out, senior managers will be using them games as glorified challange matches to see senior fringe players in action.

4th, the small club will suffer again as once the reserve leagues are run off the reserve players will not bother training with the senior team and numbers fall and training suffers as a result.

So like I said, in theory it could work, in reality it will just make life more difficult for the smaller club

I believe that 12 out of the starting 15 players of the championship game last played by the clubs may not play. However as mentioned this reserve league would be used more as boosters for senior fringe players. Ruins the reserve league really

What's the story with the Both Domhnaigh amalgamation? Gortin and Glenelly both in Grade 3 Minor but the U-14 Gradings still has Both Domhnaigh.

Seen it says that the Minor gradings are based on 2021 U-15 results but that can't be true as Aghaloo won Grade 4 U-15 championship and lost the league final by a point that year and they are still Grade 4. Probably other examples if looked into more.

Gortin and Glenelly are fit to field at that level on their own but at U14 level Gortin would not be fit to field a team so the amalgamation is going forward on a Year Group by Year Group basis year-to year.

Reserve leagues and Jim Devlin will be well underway at that stage so it would need to be earlier.
