Donegal ladies learn their schedule for All-Ireland group stage
John McNulty's side, who lost narrowly to Armagh after extra time in the Ulster final, will host Kerry at Sean MacCumhaill Park, live on TG4 in their All-Ireland opener
Donegal will begin their TG4 All-Ireland Senior Championship quest against Kerry on June 9 – live on TG4.
John McNulty's side, who were pipped at the post in extra time by Armagh in the Ulster final, are in Group 2 with Kerry and Waterford.
The Ladies Gaelic Football Association and Championship sponsors TG4 are also pleased to announce that, in total, 15 live TV fixtures have been agreed upon.
Additionally, and in an historic development, all Senior Championship games not shown live on linear TV will be live-streamed via the Spórt TG4 YouTube channel.
The live TV action commences on June 9 with a double-header of fixtures featuring Donegal, Kerry, Dublin and Mayo.
The first live TV game on the day is the meeting of Donegal and visitors Kerry, the TG4 All-Ireland senior finalists in 2022 and 2023, from Sean MacCumhaill Park (1.05pm) followed by the clash between Dublin, the TG4 Leinster and All-Ireland Senior Champions, and Mayo at Parnell Park (2.50pm).
Donegal's next game, away to Waterford on June 23, will also be on TG4 at 1.30pm.
There will be two live TV TG4 games from each round of the Senior Championship during the group phase, along with all four Senior Championship quarter-finals, both Senior Championship semi-finals, and the junior, intermediate and senior finals.
The reward for the group winners in the Senior Championships is a home quarter-final, with the last-eight ties to be confirmed by a draw.
