Tipperary and Galway, two sides who will harbour promotion ambitions, come face to face at Fethard Town Park in the Lidl Ladies National Football League at 2pm on Sunday.
The match will be live streamed at https://www.247.tv/live/svmstreaming/ 
Despite contesting the 2024 TG4 All-Ireland Senior Championship Final, Galway will ply their trade in Division 2 this year, having suffered relegation last season.
The Tribeswomen had been a top flight outfit since winning the Division 2 crown in 2014 and now they’ll have to work their way back to Division 1.
Galway name seven of the team that started the 2024 TG4 All-Ireland Senior Final for this League opener, including captain Kate Geraghty.
The visitors are also boosted by the inclusion of a number of Kilkerrin-Clonberne’s AIB All-Ireland Senior club winners in the matchday squad, including the Noone sisters.
 
Teams - Tipperary: L Fitzpatrick (captain); N Martin, L Spillane, E Cronin; S English, M Curley, B Condon; AR Kennedy, S O’Carroll; H Brennan, N Towey, A O’Shea; N Martin, E Morrissey, A Fennessy.
 
Galway: L O’Halloran; A Ní Cheallaigh, M Jordan, K Geraghty (capt.); C Cooney, E Eilian, C Trill; S Divilly, A Davoren; L Coen, S Hynes, L Noone; K Slevin, R Leonard, A Morrissey.
