The Clare Camogie Club Championship is one of the county’s most keenly contested competitions, running through the summer and into autumn with clubs from every corner of Clare chasing county honours. If you have any connection to a Clare club - or just enjoy watching fast, skilful camogie in a genuine community setting - this is the competition to follow. The standard is high, the rivalries are old, and the atmosphere at local club grounds is exactly what makes GAA sport worth watching.
The championship is run by the Clare Camogie Board across senior, intermediate, and junior grades, giving clubs of all strengths a meaningful competition to play for. Clubs like Sixmilebridge, Inagh/Kilnamona, Newmarket-on-Fergus, Eire Og, and Clarecastle are among those who have competed across the grades in recent seasons, and the geographic spread of fixtures means matches take place at club grounds right across the county from July through to the autumn.
The championship builds through group stages and knockout rounds, with the finals traditionally held at Cusack Park in Ennis - the county ground that has hosted Clare GAA since 1936. Named after Michael Cusack, the Clareman who founded the GAA, the stadium holds over 21,000 and has five distinct viewing areas including a covered stand and terraces at both ends. For the club championship, many fixtures are played at smaller club venues, which makes for a more intimate experience - you are standing on the same bank as the players’ families, often in a field that the club has maintained for generations.
Fixtures and venues for each round are published on clarecamogie.com and through the ClubZap app, which is the most reliable way to track where and when the next round is being played. Times vary by fixture.
Ennis is the county town of Clare and is well connected by road and rail. From Dublin, the M7 south links to Limerick and from there the N18 runs directly into Ennis - the drive is roughly two and a half hours. Bus Eireann and Dublin Coach both run direct services from Dublin to Ennis, with the journey taking around three hours. Ennis also has its own train station on the Limerick to Galway line, with regular services from Limerick taking around 40 minutes. For club-ground fixtures outside Ennis, a car is the practical choice - most grounds are signposted locally and have field parking.
A match day in Clare is as good a reason as any to spend time in Ennis itself - the town has a strong traditional music scene, decent food, and the medieval friary at its centre. There is more to see in Ennis and across Co. Clare.
