    Leinster or other provinces not letting some players in schools playing main club competitions isnt a bad thing. Its clubs not doing enough to play other competitions or even just tours for these players.
    It can irk some people who don't go to a Rugby school when they see half their players gone at U15 and team fall apart. Nothing like this happens in any other sport.

    Gaelic football and hurling are summer sports so its completely different.
    Soccer doesnt have need for it and while the schools tournaments are big and important its primarily about clubs and what they do.

    And if looking at clubs across country as a whole very few clubs who lose half there players from u14/15 to schools.

    Yeah I like that about Gaelic Football, ground is hard, ball is dry - way prefer it in the Summer.
