Anna Geary urges female players to join the recently formed CPA

Former Cork star Anna Geary believes female club footballers and camogie players could be best served by linking up with the recently formed Club Players Association (CPA) rather than starting a separate women’s organisation.

Geary, who captained Cork to an All-Ireland camogie title in 2014 before announcing her retirement at 27 just eight months afterwards, was a part of the Women’s GPA (WGPA) starting committee two years ago.

Speaking at the launch of Littlewoods Ireland’s sponsorship of the National Camogie Leagues, the Milford native suggested female club players do not necessarily need their own representative body in the same way inter-county players do.
