The Very Camogie League got off to an explosive start when Division 1A champions Galway were taken down by Tipperary last Saturday.

While that result and the three-goal margin was still being digested, Clare pulled off what an arguably bigger shock less than 24 hours later, coming home strongly in the final quarter to defeat All-Ireland victors Kilkenny by two points.
