TG4 Leinster Senior Final 2010 Launch 

  • Jul 09,2010



The TG4 leinster Senior and junior championship finals have been fixed for the Sunday the 18th of July in Dr. Cullen Park, Carlow.

The senior final throws in at 3pm, when Dublin and Laois go head to head, Dublin manager Gerry McGill will be hoping to steer the Dublin ladies to their third TG4 Leinster title in succession, while Laois will be fully focused on bridging a four year gap since they last lifted the senior TG4 Leinster Championship trophy in 2006.

Although Dublin saw off Kildare with seven points to spare (1-9 to 0-5),  in their semi final game, it fair to say that 2010 has been annus horribilus for Dublin, having been relegated to division two in the Bord Gáis Energy NFL for 2011, the Dublin side will be looking to kick start their 2010 TG4 All Ireland Championship title campaign, with a win over Laois in the TG4 Leinster Senior Championship final.

However ,Laois are also a county on a mission, they finished third in division one of the  Bord Gáis Energy NFL, behind Cork, Galway and Monaghan. Laois registered a two point win over Dublin back in April ( 2-10 to 2-8 ) in the last round of the NFL, the O’Moore County went on to compete in the semi final, where they were defeated by Galway by four points ( 2-13 to 1-12).

 

However, Championship football is a different ball game, the teams have given great commitment to their respective Counties, and on the 18th of July their sights will be firmly set on being crowned TG4 Leinster Champions for 2010.
