Ulster Ladies Club Championship postponed due to increase in Covid-19 cases

The Ulster Ladies Club Championship has been postponed due to a rise in Covid-19 cases across the province.

Ten fixtures were scheduled to take place this weekend at junior, intermediate and senior level.

But the Ulster Ladies Gaelic Football Association has confirmed there will be no games until the situation is reviewed on October 12.

"Following a recent upsurge in Covid-19 cases province-wide, Donegal moving into Level 3 and a number of positive Covid-19 cases in LGFA clubs, after careful consideration Ulster Ladies Executive feel it is in the best interests of our members to postpone the Ulster Ladies Club Championship 2020," read a statement from the ULGFA.

"Should there be a significant decrease in Covid-19 cases and lighter restrictions in place then we will review this decision on 12 October.

"This has not been an easy decision to make and we thank the clubs for your continued co-operation."
