Donegal chairman Mick McGrath has stressed the importance of the GAA aligning the return to play on both sides of the border. The GAA, who have been adopting a 32-county approach, are keeping a watching brief on how the Northern Ireland Assembly ease restrictions. McGrath hopes the GAA can synchronise the return to play dates across the jurisdictions. “We’re a 32-county organisation, which is one of our main aims, which is on page one of our An Treoir Oifigiúil. McGrath believes there would be an appetite in clubs in border counties to train across the border should their fellow Ulster counties be permitted to train before them.
