New camogie rules backed to improve spectacle

Heather Cooney and Katie Power exuded positivity about the willingness to modernise camogie.

The trialling of new rules in the Littlewoods Camogie Leagues has earned broad approval and two of the stars of the sport joined the chorus of goodwill ahead of the opening round of action on Saturday and Sunday.

Heather Cooney, who won League and Championship honours with Galway in 2019, and Katie Power, who has known glory in both but had to play second fiddle to the Tribeswomen in both competitions last year, exuded positivity about the willingness to modernise camogie.
