Three Names Put Forward In Race To Become Laois GAA Chairman

The annual convention is being held next month.

There'll be three names on the ballot for Laois GAA Chairman at next month's convention. 

Current vice-chairman Tom Clear, PJ Kelly of Timahoe and Kieran Leavy of Portarlington are seeking to replace the outgoing Peter O'Neill, who announced recently his intention to step down. 

O'Neill has enjoyed a four-year term (2017 and 2019 elections) but has decided to step aside despite having an option to continue in the role for another year. 

Portarlington's Leavy was the challenger to O'Neill last time around but lost out in the ballot of club delegates, while Clear and Kelly are up for the job for the first time. 

The voting will take place on the first Monday in December.
