62 per cent of camogie clubs vote

The Camogie Association has confirmed that the poll of clubs which took place over the last few days has concluded with 62 per cent of clubs returning a vote.

Some 53 per cent of those clubs voted for option 2 with 47 per cent voting for option 1.

This means that the Camogie Association will now run the 2021 Inter County Championship, after the Littlewoods Ireland National Leagues which start this weekend, followed by club Championship competitions.

First - National League

Second - Inter-County Championship

Third - Club Championships

Planning will start immediately at National and County levels to maximise camogie activity for all players throughout 2021.

The next steps for the Camogie Association is to detail the fixtures structure, collaborate with the GPA in relation to the feedback from clubs and work with broadcast partners to try and ensure maximum coverage possible for all Camogie on 2021.

"The Camogie Association welcome this decision, and the formal acknowledgement of the contributions that the Camogie Association, camogie volunteers and players across the club network and at inter-county level, make to Irish sport, society, culture and heritage. We will work with government and sport Ireland in relation to the roll out of this funding," commented a spokesperson for the Camogie Association.
