Other Motions

That for championship purposes, that any team that plays Senior championship names 17 players that aren’t eligible to play second team championship football and a further 15 if they are entering a third team. Naomh Muire Cill Tochairt (Motion withdrawn)

That at any level within the county, a club should not enter a 15 a side competition, only knowingly having the intention to play 13 aside. Players on both sides are losing out on playing time, and this is unfair to players and is not in the spirit of our GAA ethos. Naomh Muire Cill Tochairt (Motion withdrawn in recognition of the fact that CCC Liatroma carries out grading)

Leitrim County Board trial a silent sideline at all underage games and actively promote it. Naomh Muire Cill Tochairt (Motion put forward as a recommendation to be trialled in 2022 at Under 9 and 11)

To accommodate clubs that do not have sufficient players to enter a second or third team, that these clubs be allowed to amalgamate together within their region and be entered into the Corrib Oil Junior C competitions only. This will ensure that ALL players within these clubs would be guaranteed football. Acadh na Síleann (Motion withdrawn)

In the event of a club’s home pitch not being playable, the given fixture (league or group stage championship) will automatically revert to the away team’s home ground. Should the away team’s home pitch also not be playable, the fixture should be moved to a neutral venue to be fixed by the CCC. Gortleitreach (Motion defeated)
