Please see the latest guidelines following the recent changes to the Government’s COVID-19 plan in relation to ‘Return to play’ for underage club and Adult inter county camogie.

This includes

We are very conscious of managing the potential risks associated with returning to play and on the need to minimise engagements and contacts between groups at all levels.

To this end, as a National Governing Body, we direct that players train and play with one team/ squad only under current restriction levels. For Example: –

In 26 Counties, For players who are selected as part of an inter county squad, who are under 18 years, must declare for either:

  1. Their Inter County Adult team – meaning that they would not be eligible to return to under age training with their club team under current restrictions or
  2. Their Juvenile Club Team, which would mean that they are no longer eligible to train/ play with their county team under current restrictions.

i.e. player would declare and train with one group only.

In Northern Ireland For players who are selected as part of an inter county squad, of any age, must declare for either:

  1. Their Inter County Adult team – meaning that they would not be eligible to return to training with their club team under current restrictions or
  2. Their Relevant Club Team only , which would mean that they are no longer eligible to train/ play with their county team under current restrictions.

i.e. player would declare and train with one group only.

This will help to ensure a safe return to sport, minimise interaction between players and enable our county teams to field as planned, particularly at the junior levels.

We are aware that is will be challenging for players and team management. Our priority remains the ongoing health and safety of all involved in our sport.

Thank you all for your continued patience, support and commitment to providing safe playing and training environments for all.
