Jarlath Burns has been elected as the 41st president of the GAA following Friday night’s vote at Congress in Croke Park.
The former Armagh senior football captain saw off the challenge of Donegal’s Niall Erskine and Offaly’s Pat Teehan on the opening night of the 2023 Annual Congress.
Burns will now spend a year as Uachtarán Tofa (president elect) as the current incumbent Larry McCarthy has one year left to run in the post.
