Hi, just a quick question. I haven't played GAA with my local club for a few years now because, I've been in a difference county working and its just too difficult to give it my all. If I were to now play for a different club would I need any transfer forms, etc or would I just be able to join them as a member. As I said its been about 4-5 years since I last played with my original club.

Thanks in advance

If you played adult football with your old club, you will need a transfer no matter how long it is since you played. If it's inter-county that is pretty much a formality. If it's to another club in your home county you'll have to get agreement from your old club.

Once you haven't played for 2 years i don't think your current club can object but you still need a transfer

Yeah I moved clubs a few years ago after being idle for a few. I still had to get documents signed but no problems. The worst part is that it takes a few weeks to get rubber stamped so you cant play until all is done. I missed the first 2 games that year which didn't help with me breaking into the first team.
