The GAA has confirmed that 2020 season ticket holders will be offered either a partial refund or a discount on 2021 tickets if the remainder of this year's season is cancelled due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.

The Association's ticket office sent out an email to season ticket holders this afternoon, saying the season ticket terms and conditions have been updated “to provide greater clarity to the existing terms and conditions for our season ticket holders and not an attempt by the GAA to step back from its obligations in dealing with the matter at hand.”

Here's the statement in full:

"These are truly exceptional times for all aspects of society along with the GAA and its members."

"We are still hopeful of completing the 2020 inter-county and club season over the course of the current year. This will include championship and some of the remaining league fixtures.

"If this unfortunately does not prove to be possible due to the ongoing Covid-19 restrictions, we will offer all 2020 Season Ticket holders a discount on their 2021 Season Ticket, or alternatively a partial refund of their 2020 Season Ticket. All refund decisions will be dependent on how the remainder of the 2020 Season can be completed.

"With reference to the updated terms and conditions applicable to the GAA Season Ticket, this was seeking to provide greater clarity to the existing terms and conditions for our season ticket holders and not an attempt by the GAA to step back from its obligations in dealing with the matter at hand.

"The re-commencement of all GAA fixtures are fully dependant on Government directives and HSE and WHO best practice health office. Once we have more information available regarding the resumption or otherwise of GAA fixtures we will be in contact with all Season Ticket holders."
