•The new playing rules passed at Congress 2012 come into effect on Friday, June 1 for all underage and adult games and competitions at all levels. Please inform all mentors, officials and players: A maximum of eight substitutions may be made in underage and adult at all levels. This does not apply to championship. When the sliotar is played directly over the crossbar from a sideline ball, the score will be worth two points; when play is stopped by the referee due to an injury to a player, play resumes with an indirect free to the team in possession at the time the referee stopped play.
•Dublin Camogie Handbook is now available. It features all the camogie information you need to know -- a club directory, competition guidelines, County Board bye-laws, code of ethics and much more. The handbook will be available in Parnell Park at the County Board meeting on Monday, June 11. €10 per copy.
