Opposition to Leitrim and Longford removal from hurling league

The proposals to remove counties without five hurling clubs from the national hurling league has been met with opposition.

The CCCC’s proposal would see Cavan, Fermanagh, Longford, Leitrim and Louth removed from the Allianz hurling league from 2025.

Whereas, the proposal would see the Lory Meagher Cup expanded from five games per team to seven or eight games.

Cavan hurling captain and GPA representative Matthew Hynes told Damien Donohoe about his disappointment in the proposal.

Whereas, the Cavan county board have since told Northern Sound Sport their opposition to the proposal and their plan to vote against it.

Meanwhile, Dave Hooper spoke to Cavan hurling development officer and former hurling development officer for Longford Seamus Hughes.
