CAMOGIE INTERPROVINCIALS: MUNSTER got revenge on Connacht in yesterday's interprovincial final with the adverse weather playing havoc with proceedings – delaying the start of the matches throughout the afternoon in Donaghmore, Ashbourne GAA grounds.

However, it didn’t deter the Munster side from battling back from an earlier defeat to the westerners in the round-robin series. Munster triumphed in the final 0-7 to 0-2 – the hard work completed in the opening half having played against the wind 0-4 to 0-1, as Orla Cotter hit three important points.

In the group series, Connacht represented by the Galway panel and managed by former county hurler Liam Donoghue, won both their matches but came up short in the decider.

Because of Ulster’s withdrawal this year, the games were played in a blitz format with games 15 minutes a half.

The junior final also involved Connacht and Munster – with Connacht running out victors 4-4 to 0-2.
