Camogie chiefs adopt new play-off protocol

The Camogie Association has altered competition protocol pertaining to the All-Ireland senior championship to avoid a repeat of the coin toss controversy which marred the 2015 edition.

Camogie Association top-brass came in for intense criticism last July when proposing that the fate of Clare and Dublin — the two counties finished level on points for the last remaining quarter-final spot at the end of the round-robin phase — be determined by a coin toss.

Both counties boycotted the attempted coin toss and a play-off was eventually granted.
