IT'S ANOTHER busy weekend ahead for a number of Limerick GAA clubs with four teams out in Munster action. Na Piarsaigh, Dromin-Athlacca, Feenagh-Kilmeedy, as well Newcastle West's and Monaleen's camogie teams will all be looking to progress.

Na Piarsaigh are aiming to get back into the Munster Club SHC final when they welcome 2022 All-Ireland champions Ballygunner for the second year running at the TUS Gaelic Grounds.

The Caherdavin lost out to the Waterford side last year and will be looking to exact a bit of revenge in the semi-final that has a 4pm throw-in. The game is live on TG4.

Dromin-Athlacca are out as well on Sunday when they make the trip to play Clare's Corofin in the Intermediate semi-final. The south Limerick side are still revelling from their Premier IHC final win but will fancy a run at Munster.

In the Munster Club JHC, Feenagh-Kilmeedy will hope that they have recovered from the heartbreaking penalty shoot-out loss to Mungret St Paul's when they face The Banner at a Clare venue on Saturday. The Banner have young Clare star Shane Meehan as part of their team.

In the Munster Club Senior Camogie Championship, Newcastle West make the trip to Castle Road in Blackrock when they take on Cork champions Sarsfields in the semi-final.

The dual players in their squad will be hoping to recover from Monagea's Munster Intermediate Football final loss on Sunday. That game has a 1.30pm start on Sunday.

Monaleen play Waterford's Butlerstown in the junior semi-final on Saturday in Ballyagran. That game also has a 1.30pm start.
