Camogie All-Ireland final: Cork’s Ashling Thompson fighting her way back into the team after disappointment and injury

Moloney says it has been a disappointing year for Cork camogie up this this point, but that “it is a marathon and not a sprint”. “Then there was a revival, probably in the last 20 years. Perhaps the centenary of camogie in 2004 helped with that. They won 16B and 18B All-Ireland titles and then slowly but surely built up to a junior All-Ireland win in 2011,” she said. “And then in 2015 we won the intermediate final. So all stepping stones. We have had schools success too. There is a lot of hard work and that has all helped.

Another person hoping for a Waterford win is 79-year-old Elizabeth Barry, a former Waterford senior camogie player.Ms Barry, affectionately known as “Weeshee”, told RTÉ that getting to the final means the world to local people. But she admits they are hoping to go one step further and bring home a first championship.
