Clare’s senior camogie side shows one change from the starting fifteen which had a five point defeat to Galway in the opening round of the National League.

Corner back Ciara Doyle of the Scariff/Ogonnelloe club is ruled out of the tie having picked up an injury in the first half of the first round clash with Galway in Kenny Park on Saturday. She is replaced in the team by Bodyke’s Roisin Minogue.

Fellow defenders Roisin McMahon of Newmarket-on-Fergus and Kilfenora native Niamh O’Dea remain sidelined with injury.

As they welcome Limerick to Fr McNamara Park for Saturday’s 4:30pm fixture, Ger O’Connell has made no other changes to his lineup.

Clarecastle’s Doireann Murphy continues between the posts with captain Clare Hehir at full-back alongside Minogue and Ciara Grogan.

Zi Yan Spillane impressed in her senior debut last weekend and is back at midfield with Aoife Keane.

Former skipper Laura McMahon is at centre back with All Stars Chloe Morey and Maire McGrath in the half-forward line with another ex captain Orlaith Duggan.

Eimear Kelly who slotted four points from play against Galway is in the full-forward line with fellow Truagh/Clonlara clubmates Áine O’Loughlin and Becky Foley.
