O'Duffy Cup
Encyclopedia : O : OD : ODU : O'Duffy Cup
The O'Duffy Cup (Irish Corn Uí Dhubhthaigh) is the name of the trophy that Camogie teams play for in the final of the All-Ireland Camogie Championship, the premier "knockout" competition in the game of camogie (a game similar to hurling played by women in Ireland). The cup is named after Seán O'Duffy, a member and administrator of the Crokes club in Dublin, who presented the trophy to the sport's governing body, Cumann Camógaíochta na nGael, in 1932. The series of camogie games are organized by Cumann Camógaíochta na nGael (Irish Camogie Association) and are played during the summer months with the All-Ireland Final being played on the second or third Sunday in September in Croke Park, Dublin. Cork are the current holders of the O'Duffy Cup.
