Double headers again as Munster GAA partner with Munster Camogie and the LGFA

Munster GAA has announced a partnership with the province’s LGFA and Camogie associations to organise six double-headers during the upcoming Munster championships.

One Ladies Football and five camogie championship games will precede games in the men’s competitions over the course of April and May. The earlier start to the 2023 Munster senior football championship reduces the opportunities for further Munster Ladies Football curtain-raisers. 

The first of these fixtures will see Limerick and Clare square off at the TUS Gaelic Grounds on Saturday, 29 April before the hurlers clash at the same venue later that evening.

On Sunday 30 April, Cork and Waterford will feature in the Munster camogie and hurling championships at Páirc Uí Chaoimh.

The football double-header will take place on Sunday, 7 May, as Cork face Kerry in the ladies, a game which will be followed by the men’s Munster football final.

“On behalf of Munster GAA, I am delighted that once again a number of Camogie and Ladies Football games will be played as part of our Munster Championship programme of games in the coming months,” said Munster GAA Chairman Ger Ryan.

“The addition of several Camogie and Ladies Football games in 2022 as curtain-raisers to our Munster Senior Hurling and Football Championship games worked very well and I have no doubt the inclusion of further games this year will continue to enhance the bond between our respective bodies.”
