Kilkenny and Tipperary will be aiming to roll the clock back 25 years in Saturday's All-Ireland senior camogie championship semi-finals.

The two counties faced off in the 2001 All-Ireland final at Croke Park, with Tipp prevailing to complete three-in-a-row, and incredibly that was the last time camogie’s biggest day didn't feature either Cork or Galway.

Either the Rebelettes or the Tribesgirls - or both - have been in every decider since, with Cork winning eleven titles in that time and Galway four.

Galway and Cork faced each other in closely-contested finals in 2024 and '25, winning one apiece. If both win today, we'll have our fourth Cork-Galway final in six years.

This evening’s eagerly-anticipated semi-final double-header at Thurles pits defending champions Galway against 2022 winners Kilkenny at 4pm, followed by 2024 champions Cork V Tipperary.

Tipperary last won the O’Duffy Cup in 2004 but haven’t returned to the final since making their eighth successive appearance 20 years ago.
