One of the founding members of the LGFA died today at the age of 86.
The LGFA have led tributes to Brendan Martin, who has passed away aged 86.
The Offaly man, for whom the All-Ireland senior Ladies Football trophy is named, was the Association's first assistant treasurer, and a key figure in the development of the sport.
LGFA President Mícheál Naughton described Martin as 'a visionary trail-blazer who was incredibly passionate about Ladies Gaelic Football.'
He is survived by his wife Mairéad, and sons, Peter and Cormac.
