Play the Lidl PPS All-Ireland
The Issue
Due to coronavirus causing school closures worldwide, the sporting championships were postponed. However this was not the case with Lidl Post Primary School championship, rather they were abandoned entirely.
With only the All-Ireland semi final and final left to play this is manageable, and possible in accordance with the LGFA’s roadmap to return to play. However there is no indication that such monumental matches are to be played.
The senior team of Mercy Secondary School Ballymahon had an All-Ireland in sight and refuse to give up until this game is played in the safest way possible. School teams are notorious for their comradery and to many professional adult players their school team remains their favourite. Please sign this petition to encourage the LGFA to play out the All-Ireland school championship and provide hope to the many young women who are filled with disappointment at their dream of an All Ireland football title being taken from them.
