The Camogie Association has said they have proposed a minimum player charter following discussions with the GPA and engagement with counties.

The proposed charter will build on the current Government Inter County Support Scheme and will be financially supported by the Camogie Association.

It will include contributions towards player expenses and supports, the association confirmed.

This year, players played part of the season under protest to highlight support for the establishment of a charter.

The details of the scheme will be finalised and confirmed in January, following further engagement with all parties.

Earlier this year, the LGFA, GPA and Camogie Association agreed to deliver a charter for female inter-county players ahead of the 2024 season.

Uachtarán Hilda Breslin stated: "I am delighted following constructive discussion with the GPA and our counties to confirm that we are in position to propose significant investment in the Camogie Association Minimum Player Charter.

"This is a significant milestone and will seek to provide certainty to our players and counties over the coming years focusing on priority areas."
