The 35 clubs left in last year’s unfinished All-Ireland club camogie championship are taking their case to the Disputes Resolution Authority.
The clubs, including Tipperary senior champions Drom-Inch and Intermediate champions Thurles Sarsfields, say they’ve been left with ‘no other option’.

Speaking on last night’s Time Out with Stephen Gleeson, Conor says he embraced the time away from the game:
“I embraced it, I saw the lockdowns as a real opportunity.
“From a football perspective, first of all I took a break, a well needed break physically and mentally because mentally it can take it’s toll on you as an inter-county player because you’re always switched on, you’re always thinking.
