Rebel County’s dual stars landed in fixture dilemma again

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.

Cork’s All-Ireland camogie semi-final against Tipperary is fixed for Saturday week in Thurles (7.15pm), the same day as the Cork ladies footballers are supposed to meet Donegal in the All-Ireland semi-final. The latter fixture has yet to be officially confirmed, largely because there are discussions taking place to see can an alternative date be found so Looney and Coppinger do not miss either All-Ireland semi-final.
