Yesterday it was confirmed by Taoiseach Micheál Martin that sporting events would take place behind closed doors until September 13 at the earliest.
This comes only a couple of weeks removed from when games were scheduled to include up to 500 spectators.
As such that never came into effect after a rise in COVID 19 cases.
Now the organisation faces another setback.
