ARMAGH, Donegal, Cavan, Tyrone and Monaghan games will be featured this weekend as the Ladies Gaelic Football Association confirms details of a comprehensive live-streaming service that will enable fans to watch selected fixtures in the 2024 Lidl National Leagues, TG4 All-Ireland Championships and All-Ireland Club Championships.

StreamSport, MacAV & VideoStream.ie will screen a selection of games from each weekend for the remainder of the 2024 season.

Selected fixtures that are not being shown live on TG4 will be made available at  https://page.inplayer.com/streamsportireland/ and six games are scheduled for live streaming on Sunday, February 4.

The LGFA and its streaming providers are confident that this initiative can provide a sustainable avenue to help keep coverage of LGFA to the fore across each weekend of competition.

Games are priced at €10 and are available through the StreamSport landing page https://page.inplayer.com/streamsportireland/, with links posted on our social media platforms in advance of each weekend.

The sign-up process to purchase games is exactly the same as in previous years, albeit with a different provider. 

The association will continue to provide live updates and scores through the LGFA social media channels on all match days, with clips and highlights of all the best action across the weekend. 

While the LGFA will not stream every single game across all divisions and grades each weekend, their providers are open to streaming any game for any county through the platform, once a minimum production cost is met. 

In the event that a county’s particular game is not on the featured programme of matches and a particular county wants their game streamed on the platform, they should contact raff@streamsport.ie for details.

The new service begins on Sunday, February 4 with the following fixtures (all games 2pm)

Division 1:

Armagh v Galway

Mayo v Dublin

Waterford v Meath

Division 2:

Donegal v Westmeath

Cavan v Kildare

Tyrone v Monaghan
