The positions of Development Officer and Hurling Officer were not filled at County Convention as there were no nominations and these posts will now be filled early in 2015 after clubs have been requested to submit new nominations.

MOTIONS.

A total of 8 motions were submitted for consideration at Convention but, in the final event, only two of them were discussed and passed:

1 to create a bye-law covering the first registration of youth players and to clear up certain issues regarding interclub transfers of youth players and

2. a motion that will now go forward to Annual Congress that if passed would allow members of the Association to play hurling with a club in a neighbouring county. Of the other six motions, one was withdrawn and the other five will now go forward for discussion at a County Committee meeting early in 2015 and will probably go forward as recommendations to the incoming CC C as they mostly apply to competitions.
