The competition which caters for those over the age of 35 and/or retired from inter-county camogie for the last five years, has attracted some of the top teams from across the country with Cork, Kilkenny, Clare and Wexford amongst the line-up.
Tomorrow’s competition will involve three groups of three playing each other once:

Group Three: Antrim, Tipperary, Wexford
Following a draw, teams will be allocated into the quarter-finals at 1.00pm with semi-finals taking place at 2.00pm and the final throwing in at 3.30pm.
Camogie fans are in for a treat with former greats such as Deirdre Hughes (Tipperary), Sharon Glynn (Galway) and Fiona O’Driscoll (Cork), to name but a few togging out.
