Adult club fixtures including league cup -
The guidelines include all adult matches and not just championship ‘If a county moves to a Level 3 classification, no spectators are permitted, but adult club and county matches can continue to take place behind closed doors. Underage games cannot take place (U-18 or below)'
Currently, Dublin City Council will not allow fixtures to be played on DCC owned parks under Level 3.
