Cork to vote on major changes to underage structures

Cork development officer Pat Horgan has urged club delegates to back Rebel Óg proposals, which will be discussed at this evening’s county board meeting. Chief among them is the main underage grades changing to U13, U15, and U17 to come into line with alterations recently made on a national level.

An U18 championship would take place for a year to facilitate transition, while U12, U14, and U16 competitions would remain but only for those clubs with large numbers. The primary age grades would be U11, U9, and U7.
