The scheduled TUS Corn Uí Mhuirí Group 2 clash between Clonakilty Community College and St Brendan's College, Killarney will not go ahead on Wednesday after confirmation that the fixture has been postponed.

The game had become the subject of uncertainty in recent days after St Brendan's informed Munster Post Primary Schools in recent months that they would be unable to fulfil the fixture due to a school tour to Rome this week.

Efforts were made to find an alternative date for the contest, but it is understood that agreement could not be reached between all parties on a suitable rearrangement.

Despite that, Clonakilty Community College had confirmed that they intended to travel to Bishopstown and were prepared to fulfil the fixture as originally scheduled.

However, the game has now officially been postponed. 

Both schools made winning starts to their campaigns. Clonakilty defeated St Flannan's College by 1-16 to 2-11 in Banteer, while St Brendan's recorded a 2-14 to 0-10 victory over Presentation Secondary School Milltown.

Attention will now turn to how and when the fixture can be accommodated, with the competition organisers set to determine the next step following a situation that has become one of the early talking points of this season's Corn Uí Mhuirí campaign.
