Saturday’s Munster senior camogie final has been postponed as Cork and Waterford insisted on wearing shorts.

The game has been due to be played in The Ragg but will now be played at a later date likely when shorts are permissible attire following the Special Congress vote on May 22.

A statement from Munster camogie council chairwoman Christine Ryan read: “As the Committee in charge of the Munster Championship, we have reviewed the situation regarding tomorrow's Munster Final.

“As the current Camogie rules of play are still in place and the players have indicated they would not be prepared to play the game in skorts, the decision has been made to defer the game in the best interests of all players and officials involved.

“The details of the rescheduled fixture will be released in due course.”
