Leagues scrapped as camogie calendar takes shape with round-robin Championship

Camogie’s showpiece competition is set to be played between October and December.

THE FORMAT AND fixtures are still to be finalised, but the 2020 All-Ireland Camogie Championship is set to run from October to December this year.

The sport’s league competitions and the All-Ireland Minor Championship, both brought to a halt by the pandemic in February, have been cancelled. However, Minor Championships will be played out within provinces.

A statement from the Camogie Association this evening said that the precise format of the All-Ireland Championship ‘will be finalised in the coming weeks’, though they have stated that there will be no promotion/relegation element and the initial round-robin format will be followed by knockout rounds.

The U16 championship will also be played out between October and December, but the All-Ireland Club Championships will run into 2021 with, again, an exact format yet to be settled on.

    It wrecks my head that Stephen Ireland scored the first goal for Ireland in Croker. I couldn’t think of a player worse than him to score it.

    @Ned Flanders: Roy Keane would be a good candidate for you.
