Last year’s runner-up Galway begin their campaign with an away trip to neighbours, Clare. All-Ireland runners-up Cork host a Dublin side under the new management of former All-Ireland winning Kilkenny goalkeeper David Herity.
Limerick host Division 1 newcomers Meath, whilst Wexford make the short trip to Waterford to begin their campaign. This year’s Division 1 champions will also lift a newly commissioned Division 1 trophy.
At the launch though, one poor photographer felt the full force of the launch. https://twitter.com/SportsJOE_GAA/status/829762742932357122 This is the first year that the Camogie Leagues have had a title sponsor with Littlewoods Ireland, Ireland’s leading online department store, announcing their three-year deal with the Camogie Association in December 2016. At the launch, Littlewoods Ireland announced details of their ‘Style of Play’ campaign which will highlight the skill and style showcased by the players on the pitch, throughout the League. Match highlights from selected feature games will be showcased by both Littlewoods Ireland and the Camogie Association’s digital channels along with a new ‘Style of Play Award’ for the best score in each feature match running right the way through the Division One League campaign. This will be supported by a #StyleOfPlay video series, which will look into the lives of Kilkenny’s Shelly Farrell, Offaly’s Siobhán Flannery, Dublin’s Sarah O’Donovan and Littlewoods Ireland ambassador and four-time All-Ireland winner Anna Geary.Explore more on these topics:
