GAA Congress disrupted by anti-Allianz protest at Croke Park


The GAA’s annual congress at Croke Park was disrupted on Saturday by a protest calling for the association to cut ties with sponsor Allianz.

Proceedings were interrupted when several protesters made their way into a conference hall at the Gaelic Athletic Association’s Dublin headquarters and held a banner behind the top table.

Faced with the protest, GAA president Jarlath Burns adjourned the Congress for lunch.
