JP MCMANUS HAS donated €100,000 to every GAA county board in Ireland to distribute among their clubs.
RTÉ is reporting that the horse racing magnate will hand out a total €3.2million between all 32 counties with the instructions the figure is to be divided equally among their local clubs.
A letter to each county board states the money is for the continued development of Gaelic Games in the country.
The multi-millionaire has long been a financial backer of GAA in his native Limerick. He decided to make the gesture on the back of the Treaty’s Liam MacCarthy Cup victory last month.

Was at the match against Galway yesterday, we need to be waaaaaaay better than that show yesterday to have a hope. First 20 minutes they played well then it went downhill, forwards were all over the place. Fair play to the backs though they were strong.
It was a big help that Galway couldn’t hit a barn door either. A very depressing victory yesterday, major improvements needed.
