All-Ireland champions Cork booked their qualification for the last six of the Glen Dimplex All-Ireland senior camogie championship after a third straight comfortable victory in Group 2, this time by 2-19 to 1-4 over Clare at Cusack Park.

Amy O’Connor hit 1-5 and Orlaith Cahalane 1-4 as the Leesiders cantered through. For manager Ger Manley, it was a case of job done for the table toppers. Getting Laura Treacy on after a lengthy absence with a hamstring injury, was the cherry on top.
