The U16A beat Tipperary 0-11 to 0-07 in the preliminary round of the Munster Final. Building on that they welcomed Waterford to Mountcollins to play the Munster semi-final where after playing in tough conditions they came away winners on a score line of 0-12 to 1-03. This secured them a spot in the Munster Final where they will take on Cork in a repeat of last years Munster Final. Limerick will be looking to defend their Munster title on Saturday. 

Starting their Munster campaign the U16B, they played Tipperary in the preliminary round. A very close game throughout where the girls had to come from being behind to get the win on a score line of Limerick 2-10 Tipperary 2-08.
