RTÉ has released its championship schedules for the coming months. Coverage begins on Sunday week, April 7th, with the Ulster football championship fixture between Cavan and Monaghan and runs until the All-Ireland camogie final on August 11th.
Half of the Munster hurling championship will be available free to air, including All-Ireland champions Limerick’s first two matches, beginning with the eagerly awaited clash with neighbours Clare – the fixture that last year created controversy when shown exclusively live by the GAAGO streaming service.
The schedule also includes the required broadcasts of all six provincial finals as well as the Tailteann Cup semi-finals.
There will be live coverage of both All-Ireland hurling quarter-finals on June 22nd and although not included in the RTÉ press release, the GAA confirmed that the station will, as last year, be broadcasting two All-Ireland football quarter-finals on the weekend of June 29th-30th, with the other two on GAAGO.
