Historic first for Farrelly
May 27, 2015
Referee Maggie Farrelly.
Maggie Farrelly will make GAA history on Sunday as the first woman to officiate in a men's inter-county championship match.
The Cavan referee has been appointed to take charge of the Ulster MFC quarter-final clash between Fermanagh and Antrim in Brewster Park.
The Laragh United clubperson has made a name for herself refereeing male games in the Breffni County since 2006.
Last year she was chosen to act as a sideline official in Croke Park as then All-Ireland champions Dublin began the defence of their National League Division One title against Kerry.
