The Camogie Association is delighted to announce the highly anticipated return of  PRIDERoundfor the third consecutive year, solidifying its place as a cornerstone event in the Camogie calendar. Scheduled to take place on the weekend of June 22nd and 23rd, this year’s PRIDERoundshines a spotlight on inclusivity and diversity within the Glen Dimplex All-Ireland Championship, ensuring that members of the LGBTQ+ community feel valued, respected, and embraced within the Camogie family. 

“PRIDE Round is a vital initiative that celebrates the richness of diversity and fosters an environment of acceptance and support within our beloved sport,” says Brian Molloy, Uachtarán of the Camogie Association. 

The event is set to feature engaging matchups across various championship levels, with the Senior Championship’s Round 5, Intermediate Championship’s Rounds 3 (Group 2) and 5 (Group 1), and Premier Junior Championship’s Round 4 all dedicated to promoting visibility and inclusivity.

We are honoured to support the Camogie Association’s dedication to PRIDE Month and to LGBTQ+ inclusivity.”

Players, coaches, supporters, and volunteers are encouraged to actively partake in these efforts, reaffirming their dedication to fostering a welcoming environment where all individuals can authentically express themselves.
