No. Camogie is a sport that can be played by any woman, whatever her religion. In general, for historic and political reasons, Gaelic Games are predominantly played by Catholics, but people from other religions and of no religion also play them. Although Gaelic Games are usually not associated with Protestants, the most important trophy in Gaelic sports, the Sam Maguire Cup, is named after a Protestant. Sam Maguire was a very important person in the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA). Other prominent Protestants have been involved and even been president of the GAA. So Camogie, as a Gaelic sport, can most certainly be played by non-Catholics.
