The 2020 National Camogie League, known for sponsorship reasons as the Littlewoods Ireland Camogie Leagues, took place in Ireland in spring 2020.[1][2] Several new rules are being trialled, to do with contact, persistent fouling, puckouts, dropping the camogie stick, hand-pass goals and penalty shots.[3]

The league was originally scheduled to end in April 2020, but public health measures introduced to combat the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic in Ireland caused the final stages to be delayed.[4][5][6] In June 2020 it was announced that the league was to be cancelled.[7][8]

Format

[edit]

League structure

[edit]

The 2020 National Camogie League consists of three divisions: 9 in Division 1, 14 in Division 2 and 11 in Division 3; divisions 1 and 3 are divided into two groups and Division 2 is divided into three groups. Each team plays every other team in its group once. 3 points are awarded for a win and 1 for a draw.

If two teams are level on points, the tie-break is:

  • winners of the head-to-head game are ranked ahead
  • if the head-to-head match was a draw, ranking is determined by the points difference (i.e. total scored minus total conceded in all games)
  • if the points difference is equal, ranking is determined by the total scored

If three or more teams are level on league points, rankings are determined solely by points difference.

Finals

[edit]

The winners of each group in Division 1 contest the National Camogie League final.[9]

In Division 2, the three group winners and runners-up contest the quarter-finals; the three quarter-final winners then play a semi-final and final.

The two group winners in Division 3 contest the Division 3 final.
