Glen Dimplex All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship Group 1 Round 1
Saturday May 25
Tipperary v Waterford, The Ragg, 4.30pm

Referee: Liz Dempsey (Kilkenny)

All of the established senior camogie teams are very familiar with one another, given the open draw nature of the Glen Dimplex All-Ireland Championships, the National League and the provincial campaigns. But it feels like these two are meeting every second week.
For a long time, Tipperary represented a major stumbling block, particularly at around the quarter-final stages of the All-Ireland series. That ended in last year’s semi-final and Waterford repeated the trick in the opening round of the league.
But of course, Tipp went on to become champions, winning their first national title since sealing a league and championship double 20 years ago.
Karen Kennedy, Eimear McGrath, Mairéad Eviston and Nicole Walsh are just some of Tipp’s go-to operators, while Beth Carton, Lorraine Bray, Niamh Rockett and Brianna O’Regan are recognisable figures in the white and blue.
There has never been much between them and there is no reason to expect anything different this time.
