Three debutants named in Limerick ladies football team for Leitrim

LIMERICK ladies football manager Graham Shine has opted to make six changes for his side's Lidl LGFA League Division 4 fixture with Leitrim in the Bog Garden, Rathkeale on Sunday.

Into the side come Sobhie Hennessy, Sarah Dillon, Rose Hyland, Ellie Woulfe, Amy Curtin and Laoise Browne from the team that earned a 3-6 to 0-8 win over Wicklow in their last game. Dillon, Hyland and Browne are making their first Limerick starts.

Limerick opened their league season with a big win over Kilkenny and then followed it up with that impressive showing against Wicklow.

The Limerick side will effectively book a spot in the league semi-final with victory over a Leitrim outfit that also have won both games so far. 

Limerick versus Leitrim has a 2pm throw-in at the Bog Garden and will be live streamed by the LGFA.
