County and club teams have been mounting pressure on the Camogie Association to relax the rule and give women and girls the choice between wearing skorts or shorts in camogie matches.

On Thursday The Camogie Association called a Special Congress for 22 May to vote on the issue.

She said during her career, there was a lot of things she "didn't agree with in the camogie association", which "retired me quicker than it should have done".

Speaking to RTÉ News on Wednesday, Cork camogie player Ashling Thompson said Cork will wear shorts in Saturday's Munster senior camogie final and if they are asked to change to skorts they will refuse to do so, even if it risks the game being abandoned or forfeiting the Munster title to Waterford.

However, the captain of Ballycastle's senior camogie team, Elen McIntosh, said she does not "feel that strongly about players having to wear skorts or shorts".
