Club members vent frustration over issues with GAA return to play questionnaire

Club members have vented their frustration on social media at technical problems with the GAA's return to play questionnaire.

With members shortly returning to grounds across Ireland following the coronavirus suspension, those participating in Gaelic Games must complete the questionnaire before getting back to their club.

Covid Supervisors in clubs are instructed to ensure members of their teams have submitted the relevant forms and are permitted to participate.

However, ahead of GAA pitches reopening tomorrow for the return of non-contact adult training, members have reported issues with the online system.

One tweeted: "Lads, the drop downs aren’t working on your form."

Dave OB replied: "Same issue. Rest assured its not just you. Or your club experiencing this."

Another Twitter user experienced the same problem, saying: "Drop down menu not working for county, country or gender, club etc. Working on a laptop, disappointing. Hope it's resolved soon!!"

Diarmuid Smyth said: "Club lists not working, have tried numerous times to complete the questionaire."

Fran Cahill advised: "Drop downs work on chrome browser but not Internet Explorer. Next problem that no clubs are populated in county drop down. Cannot complete form, some testing might be an idea."

A GAA spokesman said that the organisation "experienced a few issues due to the very high level of interaction."

He added that the issue has since been addressed with an "additional server capacity" to help cope with the strain on their IT infrastructure.
