Please note that the GAA membership year runs from January 1st to December 31st annually and it is a requirement as per the official guide that all members are registered via the Membership system annually.
Playing members should not be permitted to participate training or fixtures until they have been registered for the 2018 player year. If a claim is notified to Willis Tower Watsons and the claimant is not in the membership system at the date of his claim or is registered after the injury date the claim will be declined and no appeals will be considered .
There is a significant number of claims being reported for unregistered members whuch will not be tolerated going forward as the GAA Injury Benefit fund is in place to benefit registered members only.
