Former Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) president John Horan is appointed and ratified as chairperson of the Steering Group on Integration (SGI) for Gaelic games. He succeeds Dr Mary McAleese, who has stepped down from the role.
Across the outlets, the key point is the leadership change within the SGI, which is responsible for oversight and direction related to integration in Gaelic games. RTE News reports the appointment as an announced succession, while Yahoo Sports describes Horan’s ratification.
