2023 Munster Senior Football Championship

Its all systems go for our senior footballers as they commence the 2023 Munster senior football championship this Sunday at 2.00pm in FBD Semple Stadium, where we will welcome Waterford to the field of legends. Following on from a very tough Allianz league campaign that saw David Powers charges record just one league point and suffer relegation to Division 4 for 2024, The players will be very anxious to get back to winning ways on home turf. Previous clashes with Waterford have always been close encounters and I would expect nothing to change on Sunday. However with the expected return to action of key forward Steven O’Brien and a determination from the panel of players to do themselves justice I feel that it will be the blue and gold flag that will be flying highest when Galway’s James Molloy blows the full time whistle on Sunday afternoon.

With very little other distractions on Sunday afternoon, I would encourage all Tipperary supporters to go along to FBD Semple Stadium and show your support to our senior footballers who have prepared diligently for this game and deserve all the support we as a county can give them. Ticket for Sunday’s game are available to purchase from the Munster GAA website  www.munster.gaa.ie and also in participating Centra and Supervalu outlets. Tickets for the game must be purchased in advance of supporter’s arrival at the turnstile.

Munster Under 20 Hurling Championship Round 3

The Munster under 20 hurling championship continues this Wednesday evening when Tipperary will travel to Pairc Uí Chaoimh to play Cork in Round 3 of the competition. Having drawn with Clare in round 1, Brendan Cummins and his management team will be anxious to go one step further and secure all the points in this game. On the other hand Cork will not want to loose on home ground and having already defeated Waterford at the same venue last week they will go in to the game full of confidence. Tickets for the game are available via the usual outlets and if you are unable to travel o Cork, you can watch all the action on the TG4 YouTube channel.
