The Cork Junior A Football Championship semi-final clashes have been postponed following Storm Claudia.

Following early morning pitch inspections, the pitches at Páirc Uí Rinn and Glenville were deemed unplayable.

The last-four meetings of both Charleville-Kilmacabea and Nemo Rangers-Donoughmore will be refixed for next weekend.

A statement on the postponements read: "Following pitch inspections this morning, unfortunately, due to unplayable pitches, the County Junior A Football Semi-Finals, Charleville v Kilmacabea and Nemo Rangers v Donoughmore are hereby postponed.

"The CCC will be refixing both games next weekend."

The Muskerry U21 Hurling final between Inniscarra and Ballincollig was also put back a week, along with the Munster Intermediate Camogie decider between and Moycarkey Borris and Ballincollig, which had been fixed for Mallow.

Meanwhile, the three Munster club fixtures at Clonmel: St Finbarr's-Clonmel Commercials, Lemybrien: Cahir-Kilrossanty, and Knockaderry: Kilbrittain-Knockaderry, have survived the elements.

A Munster GAA statement read: "Following pitch inspections this morning, the AIB Munster Club Championship matches scheduled today for Clonmel, Lemybrien and Knockaderry go ahead as planned."
