The GAA reached a significant milestone today as competitive club matches returned for the first time since the Covid-19 lockdown.
Many counties have started their club championships straight away and Inpho gave us a glimpse into what GAA grounds looked like on match day around Covid-19 protocols.
The Wexford SHC threw in at Chadwicks Wexford Park this evening, as photographer Tommy Dickson saw St Martin's open the defence of their title against former county kingpins Oulart-The Ballagh.
