RTÉ has unveiled the details of the 31 live Championship football and hurling games it will broadcast this season. 

The Sunday Game Live throws-in for the first time this year on 22 May with an exciting double-header with Derry v Tyrone in the Ulster Championship from Celtic Park, Derry followed by Cork v Tipperary in the Munster SHC quarter-final from Semple Stadium. 

"The GAA Championship is a unique sporting and cultural experience that RTÉ is proud to share with the Irish public across all our platforms," Group Head of RTÉ Sport Ryle Nugent said ahead of the launch on RTÉ Radio 1's Sunday Sport from the birthplace of the GAA, Hayes Hotel in Thurles, where Clare meet Tipperary in the Allianz League final replay. 

"It is particularly fitting to be announcing details of our coverage on a game day in Thurles as we look forward to a summer of Sundays just like this."

Now in its 38th year, Ireland's premier GAA television programme, The Sunday Game, will return next Sunday, 15 May on RTÉ2 with presenter Des Cahill in the chair.

The Sunday Game will have highlights of up to 100 games throughout the season providing definitive analysis every single Sunday of the Championship summer.
