Surely it is long past time that this ludicrous apparent rule got binned. How is this happening in 2025 😅

  3. There was a motion at their congress only last year that would have allowed shorts, several motions in fact. They all failed. The players want shorts, but all the county board heads are tied to tradition.

  4. Even more bizzare considering the Cumann Camógaíochta is ran by women 

  6. Collectively tell them to fuck off.. why the fuck they so obsessed with what someone wears? Not like they wanted to play dressed as furries

  7. The referee is being painted as the bad guy but do they have any flexibility on this?

  8. Why change should of stuck together and told them to fuck off

  12. What is going to be needed here is a player strike across all counties to get rid of this shite. Fucking old people who don’t even play any more stopping progress

  13. Ah, we’re living in the Middle Ages. They should’ve told the ref to fuck off and not played at all. Don’t tell me it’s ‘tradition’ either.

  14. The men should wear skorts at the next game in solidarity.

  16. What the actual f**k. The players want to were shorts and feel more comfortable let them do it. Who the hell are the officials to say otherwise

  18. Asking only because I’m trying to find a rationale that isn’t stupid: is there a sponsor at play that only offers/allows skorts?

  19. If this so true the entire Camoige committee should be sacked. Players should mass revolt until these absolute gimps get f*€ked back to whatever Neanderthal era they want to live in….im hoping this ain’t true ….

  20. Would love to see the girls continue to protest. Show up in shorts everytime, let them abandon games for the sake of skorts, they’d give up eventually no doubt. Just isn’t important enough to be throwing games out for.

  21. The fact that in this day and age women STILL have to protest again sexist uniforms is absolutely ridiculous. I’m all for women supporting women, but to insist on the skort due to ‘tradition’ is sexism in itself. History has hardly been fair to women in sport. Listen to the players.

  22. Should’ve called their bluff and not played it.

  23. What a stupidly pointless way to generate negative press. Let them play in whatever they are comfortable in, be it shorts, skirts or bottoms.

  24. So who’s actually in favour of skorts, and why?

    How could you be progressive enough to devote yourself to women’s sport but conservative enough to make them wear skorts?

  25. It is bizarre that the higher-ups in the LGFA care this much.

  26. So abandon the match, they will get the law changed quickly if everyone bands together and refuses to play.

  27. It would have been more effective if they refused to play in a skort. Then the media would be all over it I would think.

  28. Yea I feel like if they followed through and made the ref abandon game it would have been national news, the game would have been rescheduled and the rule would have changed.

  29. I’d be fully behind the girls in this, skorts are bullshit, wear what you want.

    However, no point marching up to the top of the hill without carrying the protest out fully.

  30. In the NBA LeBron James complained about the Adidas football style jerseys, eventually they went back to the sleeveless jerseys. 

    Sadly the only way change would happen is if all players were to go on strike or refuse to play.

  33. What the actual fuck. That’s absolute horseshit. What’s the problem with shorts?

  35. I find it hard to believe this is serious. It can’t be. Please tell me it’s not true!

  36. That’s about as fucked up as the Norwegian volleyball team that was fined for not wearing bikinis. 

  37. This was brought up at the camogie convention last year. There was a vote on changing the rules to allow shorts snd it didn’t pass because not enough county boards supported the change.

  40. If you’re protesting, being told you won’t play is not a threat! If you stand for it at all, it’s worth ffing a match… pretenders!

  41. The men’s teams should all wear skorts and see what happens. Take a stand and show support.
