What is so terrible about Cork only players playing for the colleges?Why not go further and ban players from outside cork from playing in a cork championship.
Sure everyone wants to compete at the top, but getting there through some non entity is ridiculous, especially these days when all grades are well organised and they get enough games with their clubs. I think it’s time for the County Championship to become the Club County ChampionshipI'm sure they want to compete at the top. Is that not what it's all about.
Running off a few divisional games against each other in the middle of summer and handing out a trophy would be pretty meaningless unless they could enter the championship proper.

Players being allowed play cork county championship with two different teams in the same code in the same year, that’s the problemIm talking about clubs as well.
Between them divisions and colleges have won i think 8 championships out of 130+, so whats the problem.
I’ve never come across a Seandun Saturday morning kids coaching programme, have you?How are they non entities?
exactly Hurling Fan - if they are from Cork and they are playing with a club that is not Senior by default they should be eligible . Of course they could also be originally from another county so perhaps the rule should be that they are playing championship with a Cork club that season in a grade below senior. It’s not rocket science and the scenario where lads can play senior championship with their own club in another county and also play senior championship with UCC in the same year is so farcical it beggars belief. We could write the rule clause in half an hour in the PROC between us, submit it to the CCB and end this farcical debate once and for allFor me, only Cork players should be allowed. No problem with the likes of UCC and CIT playing as long as they‘re from Cork.
