Overview
- Camogie players have intensified protests against the sport's skort-only dress code, with Cork and Waterford refusing to play their Munster final in skorts, leading to its postponement.
- The Camogie Association has called a special congress on May 22 to vote on introducing an optional shorts rule, following player and public pressure.
- President Brian Molloy has publicly supported giving players the choice to wear shorts and expressed confidence that the motion will pass.
- A Gaelic Players Association survey found 83% of players favor the option to wear shorts, citing discomfort, exposure concerns, and anxiety caused by skorts.
- The All-Ireland championship, set to begin two days after the vote, could face disruption if the motion fails to pass.
