15-20 years of hard work by Lavey coaches to get there and all blown in days.
Of course the u19 is doomed to failure, how it even got changed fromU20 to 19 is a unclear. Apparently it happened at the Convention but people who were there didn't seem aware of it and no one has explained the reason for it.
Can only be an U19 for 1 single year presumably with the change to U18 in 2024. So whoever wins it will go down in history (if any of the games take place)

Its disappointing but clubs lose players for lots of reasons that are out of their control.

We have lost in recent years lads to soccer, plenty potential but hey ho, the club moves on

Didn't realise that it was under19 either, and next year the team that wins Minor will be same team again at under18!

But those that went to the convention it must have been voted for? Are clubs just sending ones that aren't really listening or did they not get the committee to give them more details on it?

What would have been better? stay at under 20 or move 21 early?

The best thing would have been never to touch the age grades, too late for that. Next best thing would been change back to way it was, which I think we are doing in 2024. We couldn't even do that right we changed the 20/21 again for one random season in between the two above events happening.

I'm not certain but I think it's the weekend 7th/8th October going by the way it's been one week football, one week hurling right through.
