    I saw an advert for Macra Na Feirme looking for members . It said 18 to 40 I think it was. Can they do that, is it not age discrimination ? Just curious ,don't want to join .

    It's a Youth organisation and a member of the National Youth Council of Ireland. Any youth club would have an upper age limit.

    If you think this is agest you could call all under 18s football teams agest too.

    There are other groups out there for you if your over that age. I suggest you go look at those.

    Suspect they don't understand the meaning of

    Macra Na Feirme
