The Tipperary ladies footballers requested their semi-final be put back a week to avoid O’Dwyer having to choose between codes, but when this request was not acceded to, the football management took the decision out of O’Dwyer’s hands and released her to play camogie this Saturday.

Cork dual players Hannah Looney and Libby Coppinger are facing the prospect of having to choose one code over the other on Saturday, August 18 and, in the process, miss out on an All-Ireland semi-final.
