Munster GAA have partnered with Munster Camogie and Munster LGFA again this year to provide double-headers for some of their Munster Senior Championship games.  

A total of six double-headers are planned, including one Ladies Football and five Camogie games, over the course of April and May. The earlier start to the 2023 Munster Senior Football Championship reduces the opportunities for further Munster Ladies Football curtain-raisers.  

Speaking following confirmation of the curtain-raiser fixtures, Munster GAA Chairman Ger Ryan said  “On behalf of Munster GAA, I am delighted that once again a number of Camogie and Ladies Football games will be played as part of our Munster Championship programme of games in the coming months. The addition of several Camogie and Ladies Football games in 2022 as curtain-raisers to our Munster Senior Hurling and Football Championship games worked very well and I have no doubt the inclusion of further games this year will continue to enhance the bond between our respective bodies.” 

Munster Camogie Chairperson John Foley on the news said “As the new Chairman of Munster Camogie, I'm looking forward to the year ahead and an exciting Munster Camogie Championship. It’s great to see the games being held as double headers with the Munster Hurling Championship.” 

Reacting to the news Munster LGFA President Robbie Smyth said “Following the success of staging numerous Munster LGFA fixtures in advance of Munster Senior Football Championship games in 2022, I am delighted that we will be able to continue this practice in 2023”.
