Limerick hurling manager John Kiely
MUNSTER GAA officials have confirmed changes to their 2022 provincial championship fixture schedule.
A statement this Tuesday confirmed that at last Thursday’s meeting of the Munster Council, changes were made to the Munster Senior Hurling Championship Round-Robin fixtures to remove the scenario of teams playing three weeks in a row.
This also had an impact on the dates for the Munster Senior Football Championship fixtures.
The Munster Senior Hurling Championship fixtures for Rounds 3 and 4 will be swapped with the original Round 4 fixtures now taking place over two weekends (week ending May 1 & 8) while the original Round 3 fixtures will take place on week ending May 15th. Fixtures for Rounds 1, 2 and 5 remain unchanged.

The second game is Saturday April 23 against Waterford in TUS Gaelic Grounds.
The third game is now Sunday May 8 against Tipperary in TUS Gaelic Grounds.
Limerick's final group game in the Munster SHC is against Clare in Ennis on Sunday May 15.
