The mandatory retirement age for inter-county GAA referees is 50 years old.
Once an official on the National Referees Panel reaches this age, they must step down from officiating at the inter-county level, though many continue to referee local club games.
But, should we extend the referee retirement age?
Joining Andrea to discuss is Rory Hickey, former Intercounty GAA Referee and Referee Administrator of Clare GAA, Paddy Osbourne, former Coach and Referee, David Kennedy, Tipperary center half back in the All-Ireland final in 2001 and Tim Barry, Secretary of Rathdowney Errill GAA.
