TG4 to broadcast special 90-minute programme previewing and celebrating this year\u2019s All-Ireland Ladies Football Finals<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2018Ceili\u00faradh LGFA le Lidl\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

On TG4 – Saturday 14th<\/sup> September at 20:15<\/strong>
\n
\n<\/strong>WITH the support of Lidl and the LGFA, TG4 will broadcast a special television programme to celebrate the 2019 All-Ireland Ladies Football Finals.<\/p>\n

\u2018Ceili\u00faradh LGFA le Lidl\u2019<\/em>, presented by Gr\u00e1inne McElwain, will be broadcast on TG4 at\u00a08:15pm\u00a0on Saturday next 14th\u00a0September – the eve of this year\u2019s TG4 All-Ireland Ladies Football Finals at Croke Park.
\nThe programme will visit all six counties playing in the Junior, Intermediate and Senior All-Ireland Ladies Football Finals in Croke Park on Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n

\u2018Ceili\u00faradh LGFA le Lidl\u2019<\/em>\u00a0will have a number of musical acts and interviews with players, managers, families and feature some special videos to mark the weekend.<\/p>\n

Former players will reflect on this year\u2019s Championship and on the games taking place on the following day.<\/p>\n

Ladies Football is enjoying massive levels of popularity and is one of the fastest-growing sports in the country.<\/p>\n

Last year, a record breaking 50,141 people attended the All-Ireland Finals in Croke Park.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, a total of\u00a0475,000\u00a0viewers tuned in to TG4\u2019s live coverage of the Ladies Finals peaking at 284,000 during the closing stages of the Senior Final between Dublin and Cork.<\/p>\n

The programme will be streamed live to a worldwide audience on the TG4 Player on www.tg4.ie<\/a><\/p>\n

The captains from the six counties competing in the 2019 TG4 All-Ireland Ladies Football Finals were present at Croke Park today ahead of Sunday\u2019s eagerly-anticipated LIVE TG4 triple-header.<\/p>\n

Fermanagh and Louth will battle it out for the Junior title, Meath face Tipperary for the Intermediate crown and champions Dublin tackle Galway for the Senior silverware at GAA HQ.<\/p>\n

Dublin are aiming to win the Brendan Martin Cup for the third successive year, following on from victories over Mayo in 2017, and Cork last year.<\/p>\n

Standing in their way are Galway, who beat Dublin in 2004, to win their one and only TG4 All-Ireland Senior crown.<\/p>\n

Galway are back in the TG4 All-Ireland Senior Final for the first time since 2005, when they were defeated by a Cork side about to embark on a period of dominance.<\/p>\n

Meath return to Croke Park seeking the Intermediate title which eluded them last year.<\/p>\n

Eamonn Murray\u2019s side lost out to Tyrone, but they have the chance to make amends when they face Tipperary.<\/p>\n

The Premier County will provide formidable opposition, however, and Shane Ronayne\u2019s side won this competition two years ago.<\/p>\n

The Junior Final also features a county with redemption within reach, as 2018 runners-up Louth take on Fermanagh, the 2017 winners.<\/p>\n

Marie Hickey, President of the Ladies Gaelic Football Association, was present at Croke Park to welcome the captains from the six participating counties.<\/p>\n

She said: \u201cIt\u2019s that time of year again, when we prepare to crown our three TG4 All-Ireland Championship winners. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThese are there games to savour and I\u2019m looking forward to some spectacular football, in line with the season we\u2019ve had to date. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cDublin and Galway will bring memories of 2004 flooding back for both counties, while Meath and Tipperary have provided some excellent football during their respective Intermediate campaigns. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cGetting proceedings underway are Louth and Fermanagh, who will battle it out for the West County Hotel Cup. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe road to the Finals has been exhilarating, with so many great moments and brilliant action along the way. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve had a fantastic 2019 campaign to date and hosting our Senior Championship semi-finals at Croke Park for the very first time was a big highlight. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cNow we\u2019re back at the famous venue again for the three Finals that will see our champions crowned. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are very fortunate that TG4 continue to be our Championship partners and broadcast our game, not just nationally, but to a worldwide audience, free to air.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cI am really looking forward to watching \u2018Ceil\u00faradh LGFA le Lidl\u2019 on Saturday evening, a show that should whet the appetite for what lies in store on Sunday.<\/em><\/p>\n

Speaking on behalf of TG4, Head of Sport R\u00f3n\u00e1n \u00d3 Coisdealbha said: \u201cWe would like to take this opportunity to thank the LGFA and Lidl for their partnership and support and we look forward to a great weekend of Ladies Football. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cTG4 is very proud of our sponsorship of Ladies Football and for providing extensive coverage of these matches on free-to-air television to a global audience.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

All three games will be broadcast live on TG4 starting with the Junior Final which gets underway at 11.45am. The Intermediate Final throws in at 1.45pm while the Senior Final will have a 4.00pm start.<\/p>\n

The All-Ireland Club Sevens, featuring 70 teams, take place at the St. Sylvester\u2019s and Naomh Mearn\u00f3g GAA Clubs in Dublin on Saturday, the 14th<\/sup>\u00a0of September.<\/p>\n
