The GAA should continue accepting sponsorship from drinks companies until the government tells them not to, according to the association’s alcohol abuse prevention co-ordinator.
Colin Regan, national co-ordinator of the GAA’s ASAP (Alcohol and Substance Abuse Prevention) Programme believes the onus is on the Government rather than the GAA to rule on whether alcohol companies are allowed to sponsor gaelic football and hurling.
The former Leitrim senior footballer insisted the GAA would be left "at an enormous disadvantage" to other competing sporting bodies around the country if it bowed to pressure on the subject.
