Vital game for Tipperary junior camogie team in bid to avoid the drop


Kildare will provide the opposition in Stradbally
This Saturday, April 9 Tipperary’s junior camogie team face Kildare at Stradbally, Co Laois at 1pm in a must-win game to stay in division two of the Littlewoods Ireland national league.
Having lost narrowly to Laois two weeks ago, Tipp will be hoping that they can put together their best performance to date to secure a victory that would also come as a real tonic before their Munster and All-Ireland campaigns.
In the junior Munster championship, they are drawn to play Clare at home in the quarter-final on the April 24, while the All-Ireland series begins on the weekend of the May 21/22, with Tipperary in a group with Clare, Mayo, Cavan and Waterford.
Kildare had a difficult league campaign, with defeats in all four games against Cork, Derry, Meath and Wexford.
The Tipperary players and management are wished the very best of luck.
Munster Minor A Championship
After the disappointment of a narrow one-point defeat in the All-Ireland semi-final, the Tipperary minor camogie team are back in action this Friday in round one of the Munster championship against All-Ireland champions Cork.
The game takes place in the County Camogie Grounds at 6.30pm. Michael Ferncombe and his management team will be hoping they can reverse the result of the All-Ireland semi-final.
