'It’s a bit of a cop out': Cork's Niamh Cotter not interested in being labelled a team 'in transition'

The Kilmacud Crokes player damaged a disc in her back in January of last year - and the injury has flared up again

Cork midfielder Niamh Cotter says she is determined to play her part in Cork’s bid for 2021 TG4 Senior Championship honours, but recovering from a serious back injury is her first priority.

The Kilmacud Crokes player damaged a disc in her back in January of last year, and after it robbed her of eight months of the season, she made it back and played the last 17 minutes of Cork’s TG4 All-Ireland Final defeat to Dublin.
