Association says it has no legal right to enforce mask wearing at matches

There were many critical of the scenes during the All-Ireland hurling final last week when large sections of the crowd were seen not to be wearing masks.

A GAA spokesman said Croke Park is an outdoor setting and therefore there is no legal requirement to wear a mask. Kerry play Tyrone in the delayed All-Ireland football semi-final in front of a crowd of 24,000 capped at people on Saturday with the same capacity set for the camogie semi-finals on Sunday.

Pants. They can't make you wear pants.

Thanks GAA!

Is that why it keeps announcing that face masks must be worn at all times

It's simple-if you feel unsafe,wear a mask. Assess the risk yourself without being a hypochondriac!!!

Great to see crowds back at our games again.

Ffs they'd let anyone in...

Grab All Association

Masking anywhere is madness,but outdoors,even advisory is for the birds. Fuck off with your masks. 🖕🏻

Lot of cry arses moaning about this, maybe if you want people to wear masks at the match because you are scared you should maybe just not go the match? Hide away at home for good, this virus is going nowhere it’ll be here forever, so if you want to hide forever feel free

'THE MANAGEMENT RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REFUSE ADMISSION.' This sign is displayed in multiple formats in hundreds of businesses around, Croke Park and the country; Has the GAA management been totally unaware of the Constitutional Rights of enterprises to do this?

This should be the case everywhere, indoors and outdoors. Time to move on. Those filthy muzzles have practically zero benefits.

They are compulsory for all staff and stewards.

Yup

And rightly so

Give an inch an they take a ….. . Typical of this organisation.

Nice little lockdown before Xmas, lovely 😊

Good on them. Absolute nonsense.

Like most of the ‘restrictions’… they’re guidelines only, but the weak ones who walk among us don’t understand that.. anyway, like I’d wear a face nappy outdoor considering I don’t wear one indoors..

Surprise surprise, the GAA have always been a law unto themselves

They own the stadium - they can put in any rule they want!

Well make them compulsory officialgaa

🤣

Good. Making a mask compulsory in an outdoor setting is the height of nonsense

RMcGreevy1301 Lets not hear the ludicrous statement from marty at the end of the game that most people are wearing them

Ohhhhh now the biting makes sense
