NEXT Saturday, July 9, we are launching the minor and U15 championships at Páirc Uí Chaoimh, with the help of clubs across the county.
We are going to try and do something different to launch the championships this year. The plan is to try and get a player from every club with a side or sides (hurling and football) playing in the U15 and minor championships together at Pairc Ui Chaoimh for the launch at 1pm.
To be clear we only want one player at each age level no matter how many teams they have involved. So one U15 and one minor player from each club, even if they have teams in both codes.
At the event, we will take two large group pictures, U15 and minor, and then pictures region by region as well. The idea will be then to put on social media but also to send to various news organisations to show the scale of games we play every year.
All clubs should be aware of this plan by now and the hopefully all will try to get there on the day.
Players are asked to wear their club jerseys for the launch.

After a two year break the Rebel Óg awards have returned for 2022.
The pandemic meant the awards were put on hold, with the last monthly award presented in December 2019 until yesterday.
The awards acknowledge all areas of GAA activities for underage clubs, teams, or individuals across Cork, including hurling, football, camogie, ladies football, and Scor, with an independent judging panel deciding on the monthly winner.
On welcoming the return of the awards Michael O’Mahony, chairman of Rebel Óg said: “We are delighted that the awards have returned for this year as it gives us to honour clubs, teams, and others for their special achievements.
“We would like to thank the Clayton Hotel, Silversprings, the main sponsor of the awards as well as Cummins Sports, award sponsors. Also to The Echo and RedFM for their continued media partnership of the awards. I would also like to thank Mick Evans who has stayed on as chairman of the judging panel.
“On behalf of Rebel Óg, I am also delighted to announce that former Cork footballers Ciarán Sheehan and Brid Stack have agreed to come on board as judges for the coming year and I wish them well as they will have some tough decisions to make in the coming months.
“Finally, I would like to thank all the judges over the past 10 years for all the work in making these awards the event they have become.”
Yesterday the winners for March and April were honoured with St Francis College, Rochestown, and the Cork minor camogie team picking up their awards.
Both were picked for their success in All-Ireland competitions, with the camogie side winning both the All-Ireland minor title and the Munster championship, whilst Rochestown won the Paddy Buggy Cup, the All-Ireland B championship for senior school sides.
Cork claimed their third All-Ireland minor camogie title in five years when they beat Galway by 2-11 to 2-7 at Semple Stadium. Orla Cahalane and Ciara Morrison were the main scorers, with both hitting 1-3 over the hour.
To win their All-Ireland title Rochestown hit the final nine points without reply against Claregalway to win by 0-17 to 0-9.

Rebel Og Championship Draws 2022
Draws for Rebel Og championships for Premier, East, North, West, Mid-South
youtu.be
The draw will be broadcast from Pairc Ui Chaoimh on Thursday at 8pm.
All eyes will be on the Rebel Óg minor and U15 championship draws next Thursday night, June 2, starting from 8pm.
This year the draws will be live-streamed to give players, mentors, clubs, and parents the chance to see the draws as they are happening.
All draws from around the county will be taking place, which includes the Premier and the regional draws – West, Mid-South, East, and North Regions.
Rebel Óg felt that by live-streaming the draws from Páirc Ui Chaoimh it gave everyone the opportunity to view them, especially those further away from the city who may have found it difficult to attend on the night. The draws will be done region by region and a downloadable PDF of all draws will be on the website along with a link to tune in on the night.
Michael O’Mahony, chairman of Rebel Óg said: “We are delighted to be live streaming the draws this year and hopefully it will give more people the opportunity to see them. It’s a new departure for Rebel Óg and as we move more and more into an online world we want to use the technology available to us to bring the draws to people not alone in Cork but possibly further afield.
“I would like to thank all those who have helped to organise this event, especially officers of Rebel Óg across the county who have put in a lot of work in the background to make this possible. Also thanks to Cian O’Brien, Patrick Mulcahy, and the senior board for their help.”
Further details for the link and the actual running order of the draws will be sent out in advance of the night to clubs and will also be here on the website.
