Camán to Leinster
The annual Camán to Leinster day for u12 club players took place last Sunday, the 26th May, in Abbottstown, Dublin. With 48 clubs attending on the day, it was a jam-packed day of camogie for all and the skills on display show the level of work going into club underage across the clubs. 72 games took place over the course of the day and 844 young players took to the fantastic pitches of the GAA Games Development Centre with each club having 3 games in total against clubs from other counties across the province. A massive well done to all the club players, mentors, coaches, parents and referees who made an enormous effort to attend and represented their clubs in a very sporting and enthusiastic manner all day.
These clubs now enter the draw for Caman to Croker 2020 and for attending on the day, each club will be given the opportunity to redeem tickets to this year All Ireland Camogie Finals on Sunday 8th September.
