Munster Senior Football Championship

The Tipperary Senior Footballers will play Waterford this Sunday afternoon at 2.00pm in Fraher Field, Dungarvan in the Munster Championship quarter final.

Both sides have will be coming into the game on the back of fairly disappointing league campaigns and will be hoping that their fortunes will take a turn for the better on Sunday. When the sides met a few short weeks ago in Bansha, they could not be separated, so this game could well be another very tight encounter.

Best wishes to all the players and management and we look forward to seeing a large Tipperary crowd in Dungarvan on Sunday to show support for the team.

This game will be followed by games against Waterford in Dungarvan on April 11th, Clare in Thurles on May 2nd, and Limerick in Limerick on May 9th.
