Camogie Association calls vote on skorts issue

The Camogie Association has reacted to the controversy over players being forced to wear skorts as opposed to shorts by calling a Special Congress for 22 May to vote on the issue.

The Kilkenny and Dublin teams were forced to change into skorts before last weekend's Leinster Championship semi-final after taking to the field wearing shorts.

Both sides were told were told by the referee that the game would be abandoned if the players did not change.

A vote will take place at the Special Congress which if passed, will give players the option of wearing skorts or shorts from 24 May.
