The 'mark' may be introduced to football
The 'mark' could be beneficial for Gaelic football, a GAA official has announced.
The GAA's Head of Games Pat Daly believes there are two specific areas that need to be addressed in Gaelic Games: the 'mark' and also a possible limit on the number of hand passes allowed.
Daly said: 'The traditional skills of the game should be rewarded, should be perpetuated.
'In essence, you are talking about two potential changes - the mark and a restriction of hand passing.'
The issue of the mark was broached at Meath's convention last Sunday and the issue is expected to gather pace after Daly's comments.
Before the issue can go any further, and possibly go before Congress, it will need to be redrafted for a January convention.
