Tipperary and Limerick announce teams for TG4 Munster Ladies Intermediate Championship opener

TG4 Munster IFC – Tipperary v Limerick; Semple Stadium, Thurles (5.0). – Saturday May 11

 

Aisling McCarthy is back to give Tipperary a significant championship boost.

The Cahir star spent the Spring with the Western Bulldogs in the Australian Women’s AFL, but will pull on the Tipperary shirt for the first time in 2019 when the Premier County tackle Limerick in Thurles.

This first round TG4 Munster Intermediate clash pits Tipp, who were relegated from the senior ranks last year, against Limerick, who earned promotion to the Intermediate grade after landing the All-Ireland Junior crown.

Limerick will aim to consolidate in the Intermediate grade in 2019, while Tipp will start as one of the hot favourites to win the All-Ireland crown outright.
