Argideen Rangers, Ballinascarthy and St Oliver Plunketts will be able to resume activities this week after a Covid-19 scare.

The three west Cork GAA clubs called a halt to activities earlier this week as it was confirmed that club members came in contact with someone who had contracted the coronavirus.

But they should return to action in the coming days. Argideen have since confirmed that the members concerned have tested negative for Covid-19.

As per HSE Public Health guidance and GAA return to play protocol, Ballinascarthy GAA and Camogie clubs can resume collective training. We won't be making any comment on individual members medical history and remind everyone to respect the privacy of those involved. Thank you.
