GAA - CCCC set to discuss All-Ireland Club fixtures


SLAUGHTNEIL’S All-Ireland semi-final fixture congestion will be discussed at Wednesday’s CCCC in Croke Park, it has been confirmed.
The Emmet's are set to play 2016 All-Ireland champions Na Piarsaigh in the hurling semi-final on Saturday, February 10. The fixture calendar currently has their football clash with Nemo Rangers fixed for the following Saturday.
A similar scenario arose last season, only to be resolved when Cuala agreed to switch the hurling semi-final back a week - allowing Slaughtneil's dual players extra recovery time following their football clash with St Vincent's.
Also on the agenda is the fall-out of Corofin’s postponed Quarter-Final clash with Fulham Irish. The game was called off on Sunday due to an unplayable pitch in Ruislip.
The winners will face the winners of Sunday’s rescheduled Leinster Final (Portlaoise 2pm) between Moorefield (Kildare) and St Loman’s (Westmeath) in February's All-Ireland series.
On the camogie front, Slaughtneil put their All-Ireland title on the line on Sunday, January 28 against Kilkenny's Thomastown.
