GAA: All-Ireland Club deciders, Ladies National Football League kicks off

This weekend sees the culmination of both the AIB All-Ireland Club Football and Hurling Championships, with teams from Waterford, Kilkenny, Dublin and Down hoping to take the plaudits.

The Ladies National Football League makes its 2022 debut as the National Football League takes a break after two rounds of action, while the National Hurling League enters its second round.

Here's all the fixtures taking place this weekend...

The Ladies National Football League gets underway on Saturday, starting with three Division 1 fixtures. Reiging All-Ireland champions Meath meet Cork in Navan at 1.30pm in Group B, followed by Mayo versus Westmeath at The Dome (7pm throw-in) and Donegal's clash with Galway in Ballybofey (7.30pm throw-in), both in Group A.

In the National Hurling League, after fighting hard for a draw against Waterford last weekend, Dublin travel to Corrigan Park to face Antrim in Division 1B (throw-in at 2pm, live coverage on the BBC iPlayer and GAAGO) before Limerick welcome Galway to the Gaelic Grounds at 7pm in Division 1A (live coverage on RTÉ Two or on GAAGO outside of Ireland).

Saturday's main event, however, is earlier in the day, as Waterford's Ballygunner hope to claim their first All-Ireland Hurling title, coming up against old hands, Ballyhale Shamrocks. Familiar opponents, the sides met at the semi-final stage in 2019, when the Kilkenny men took a five-point win. The game throws in at 3pm at Croke Park, with live coverage on TG4 or on GAAGO outside of Ireland.

In the second of the day's double-header, Down's Kilcoo face Dublin's Kilmacud Crokes in the All-Ireland Club Football final. It hasn't been too long since the northerners made it to the decider, missing out in January 2020 to the three-in-a-row
