<\/div>\n

Congratulations to Jake, Barry and the Tipperary senior hurlers who defeated Cork in LIT Gaelic Grounds on Saturday afternoon, 2-18 to 1-17, with Jake Morris grabbing the all-important goal with minutes remaining to secure the win. Tipperary now advance to play in the All-Ireland quarter-finals. <\/p>\n

We also want to wish the Tipperary senior footballers the very best of luck next weekend in the Munster final against Cork. This fixture has the added significance of occurring on the 100th anniversary of Bloody Sunday when British authorities attacked Croke Park resulting in the deaths of fourteen people including Tipperary men Daniel Carroll, James Teehan and player Michael Hogan. Hopefully, they will be directing proceedings from above and helping captain Conor Sweeney bring the Munster trophy home for the first time since 1935.<\/p>\n

On 21 November 1920, 14 people went to a match in Croke park. They never came home.

Sympathies<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

The club would like to extend our deepest sympathies to the family and friends of the late Bernie Morris (nee Ryan) who passed away peacefully surrounded by her loving family.<\/p>\n

<\/div>
\nMrs. Morris’ husband Con has been a loyal supporter of the club having played hurling and Gaelic football for Nenagh for many years before moving onto a successful coaching career with numerous underage teams. Her son Cian played for the club while her daughter Danielle has always been a great supporter while her granddaughter Keevah is a top underage camogie player.<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n

To her husband Con, son Cian, daughter Danielle, her brother and sisters, grandchildren and brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law and wide circle of friends, we offer our sincerest condolences.<\/p>\n

Age Grades<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n

Following a mixture of confusion and misinformation, the Officers of Choiste Chontae Thiobraid \u00c1rann would like to clarify that it is now mandatory, following Central Council Policy ruling, that from January 2021 Tipperary must operate U-13, U-15 and U-17 grades.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

We have discretion above Under 17 and below Adult so Co Convention will only decide if we play U19, U20 or U21.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

The following is the age-grade policy clarification we received from Croke Park this week;<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Developmental Age Grades<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

All age grades up to and including U-17 are considered developmental
\nWithin this range Association Policy is that counties shall operate U-13, U-15 and U-17 age grades as a minimum requirement.<\/p>\n

<\/div>
\nCounties may, in addition, opt to play at U-12, U-14, and U-16;
\nCounties who wish to play these additional age-grades may do so in consultation with Central Games Development Committee<\/p>\n
<\/div>
\nAge Grades above U-17<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n

Counties are expected to operate at least one age grade above U-17 and below adult; that age grade(s) can be determined by the county in consultation with Central Games Development Committee
\nAs indicated GDC are authorised to sanction U-12, U-14, U-16 and U-18 only in addition to U-13, U-15 and U-17<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

I hope this clears up the confusion and Divisional and County Coiste na n\u00d3g’s can now go ahead and draw up their Fixture Programmes based on above.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

The email below from the Ard Sti\u00farth\u00f3ir confirms the age grades to be applied.<\/p>\n

A chara,<\/p>\n

In response to a number of requests from Counties for direction, and following the reinforcement of eligibility for the Adult grade as 17 years of age at Congress 2019, Central Council, by way of adoption to the Talent Academy Report at its meeting on 29th June, confirms standard club age grades for child and youth players to be applied, as policy, in 2020 as follows:<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Under 17 – A player shall have celebrated his 13th birthday prior to January 1st and his 17th birthday on or after January 1st of the Championship Year.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Under 15 – A player shall have celebrated his 11th birthday prior to January 1st and his 15th birthday on or after January 1st of the Championship Year.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Under 13 – A player shall have celebrated his 9th birthday prior to January 1st and his 13th birthday on or after January 1st of the Championship Year.<\/p>\n

<\/div>
\nNote: In addition, further optional club grades are permitted at U-14, U-16, U-18, U-21, counties are required to seek approval of Central Council in these instances.<\/p>\n
