Large crowds expected in Tullamore as All-Ireland double-header takes place

Thousands of spectators will be expected to converge on Glenisk O'Connor Park, Tullamore this Saturday, as the Offaly venue plays host to two All-Ireland U18 'A' Ladies' Championships finals.

Plenty of supporters from nearby Roscommon will likely form a large part of the attendance, as they take on holders Cork in the 'A' Championship decider at 4pm.

Beforehand, at 2pm, Kerry and Tyrone will do battle in the 'B' final. The 'C' decider, between Armagh and Longford, takes place at St Tiernach's Park, Clones at 2pm.

In the ‘A’ grade, holders Cork are aiming for back-to-back crowns and a 14th title in all. Opponents Roscommon will contest a second All-Ireland U-18 ‘A’ final, and a first since 1991.

The 'A' and 'B' finals will be streamed live on the Spórt TG4 YouTube Page, https://www.youtube.com/@SportTG4/streams, while the ‘C’ final will be available to view on the LGFA Facebook Page

Looking ahead to the games, Ladies Gaelic Football Association president Trina Murray commented: “We’re looking forward to what should be three excellent games. All six teams have shown really good form en route to the finals and I wish them the very best of luck ahead of Saturday.”
