Munster Senior Camogie Final deferred in the "best interests of players and officials"

The much-talked-about Munster Senior Camogie Final between Cork and Waterford that was due to be played at the Ragg in Tipperary tomorrow (Saturday) has been deferred in the "best interest of all players and officials" involved in a statement released this evening. 

After both teams insisted on wearing shorts, the game will now be played at a later date likely when shorts are permissible attire following the Special Congress vote on May 22.

A statement from Munster camogie council chairwoman Christine Ryan read: “As the Committee in charge of the Munster Championship, we have reviewed the situation regarding tomorrow's Munster Final.

“As the current Camogie rules of play are still in place and the players have indicated they would not be prepared to play the game in skorts, the decision has been made to defer the game in the best interests of all players and officials involved.

“The details of the rescheduled fixture will be released in due course.”
