Chairperson Tracey Kennedy says fixtures clash unavoidable

The decision to fix seven Cork senior club championship fixtures on the same day as the county contests the All-Ireland camogie final was unavoidable, according to Cork chairperson Tracey Kennedy.

As has been the case in recent years, a number of club championship matches are clashing with Cork’s latest bid for O’Duffy Cup glory. There is one Cork SHC and six SFC games down for decision on Sunday, including Carrigaline versus Douglas which throws in at 3.30pm. The latter club have three players — Julie White and the Mackey twins, Katrina and Pamela — on the Cork camogie team.
