NOTE
The injury scheme is funded entirely from Club and GAA funds with
no outside (e.g.insurance) involvement. There is no legal obligation
on the GAA to provide such a scheme. Risk is an inherent factor in
sport, as in life. When members voluntarily take part in Club Activities,
they accept the risks that such participation may bring. Legal representation
is not required and there is strictly no Legal Expenses Cover amongst
the benefits provided.
