Páirc Uí Chaoimh will host the Munster-Crusaders ‘Clash of Champions’ rugby game on February 3 next year, if one-off approval is given by the GAA's Central Council when they discuss the matter on Saturday week.

The Cork GAA executive have sent a submission to Croke Park for Páirc Uí Chaoimh to host the fixture between the URC champions Munster and the Super Rugby Pacific champions Crusaders.
