National League
Well Wexford used 33 players today and won both the Division 1 and Division 2 League titles.... No player appeared in both matches so I think that justifies itself!

National League
Wexford or Kilkenny for div 1?

offaly should have an easy win in division 2. Wexford used alot of their senior subs for their group matches when their seniors werent playing. on one side great to give the other teams a tough match but on the other hand it should really be the likes of limerick going forward to play in the final. Tipperary did it too so fair play to offaly on that one however Claire Grogan played against antrim and they're in danger of being relegated, not fair at all. i think if a county plays senior players in div 2 the match should count as null but still go ahead i know the likes of Down, Derry, Antrim, Limerick, Waterford and Offaly want to play the best.

Ashbourne / Purcell Cup 2010
Chicko agree with your sentiments in relation to the recognition of female sports within colleges, but im afraid the lads will always get preference and when the lassies go looking for funds they certainly very rarely get as much as the males do. There is a huge push on getting more coverage of camogie but as well as being behind the male games , camogie is also far behind ladies football so realistically were bottom of the pile when it comes to funding, lets just soldier on and hope the coverage and playing numbers increase, then maybe there'll be more backing....

Ashbourne / Purcell Cup 2010
gr8 weekend was had at the weekend in CIT. fair play to everyone whom played a major role in the organising and running of the event. quick question does anyone know who picks the all stars.???? there are afew players whem were hard done in my view and from talking to others they seam to agree. standard of camogie was extreamly high but i think a day of recovery between semi finals and finals would further increase the skill level and result in higher quality games......... it would be an idea that in the future the semi finals be held on the friday and finals the sunday. I acknowledge that it may result in extra costs for colleges to stay away but this shouldnt interfere with the standard of the game... in several colleges there are no expenses spared to ensure that the male counter-parts return with silverware and in my opinion it is unjust that the same isn't been done for females.... after all they put in just as much if not more effort than males throughout the year and the college doesn't support them then when most needed. WELL DONE AGAIN TO CIT FOR A GREAT WEEKEND AND CONGRATS TO ALL THE TEAMS THAT MADE IT THE WEEKEND IT WAS AND WELL DONE TO WIT AND DIT ON YER SUCCESS.

Ashbourne / Purcell Cup 2010
Overall i thought the all-stars were well handled with them spread out across the colleges unlike the inter-county ones! good weekend too, great having both competitions in one place too! Fair play to CIT!

Ashbourne / Purcell Cup 2010
One of the best weekends of camogie is ahead and i think its vital that all teams have as much support as possible. WIT for the ashbourne
but the purcell could have several shocks. Hopefully the refs wont be the cause of teams winning and loosing which has been the case
for many games in the past. Wish all the teams the best and that they have a great weekend. ROLL ON THE WEEKEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ashbourne / Purcell Cup 2010
Ok weekend just upon us, i'll go for WIT to retain Ashbourne Cup after a tough semi final scare against UUJ, UL to take the shield

In Purcell the winners of the Mary I and DIT game should win out, i'll go with DIT to provide the upset of the weekend, In the shield its hard to look past Queens, who I think are too strong to be in that competition to be honest,

Ashbourne / Purcell Cup 2010
Just an update on the Purcell Cup for anyone interested NUIM came through their qualifier and play IT Tralee, that fixture as far as I know is early next week.

DCU scrapped past LIT and have now set up a clash with Garda College. Not sure when that game is.

Trinity hammered GMIT and play DIT who had a big winning margin against Carlow IT. This game has since been played and DIT are through to the Purcell Cup after a 13 point winning margin, while Trinity College go into the Purcell Shield.

QUB had a lot to spare over St Pats and now play Mary I. That game is been played today at 1.30pm in Dublin.

As Far as I know in the Ashbourne, UUJ overcame AIT in a very one sided game and the other three quarters are all scheduled to be played today

Ashbourne / Purcell Cup 2010
Good point Ckeeko. There is so little coverage in the press or the webb I was beginning to wonder if there is any camogie play at higher level. Certainly we don't hear anything about the Northern Universities. Start reporting on ourselves whether it be good or bad there is a lot of interest out here.
