Waterford camogie squad feel like 'second class citizens' amid fixture pile-up

The Leinster club championship doesn't start until the New Year and O'Brien believes that the black and amber have an unfair advantage.

Waterford manager Fergal O'Brien has blasted the Camogie Association, claiming that the 2020 All Ireland series isn’t a level playing field and that his players feel like second class citizens.
