Replying To TheChampion:  "In the senior championship, I believe the teams will play each other once on a league basis before proceeding to the knockout stages, where as the intermediate teams were split into two groups of four resulting in half as many fixtures as the senior championship. Maybe the lack of referee's in the county might have something to do with it but I think it comes down to lack of effort in promoting hurling. Bray's intermediates do play in a Dublin league but the Wicklow league should take precedence. Would the county board be happy for all Wicklow clubs to abandon the Wicklow leagues to play in surrounding counties for more games or do Bray have a special exception?"

Replying To wicklowsupport:  "Your post highlighted the lack of competitive games in the county. My point is if there are insufficient teams to generate more games why not compete in leagues outside the county. I'm not advocating that these outside games replace internal league games but complement those games. In the past teams sourced challenge games to get game times - is this an option? Maybe there is a lack of an appetite for hurling from some clubs as they'd rather stick to playing football."
