Public sale of tickets confirmed for Limerick football championship tie with Tipperary

MUNSTER GAA officials have confirmed that all tickets that went on public sale for the Limerick v Tipperary Munster U20 Football Championship tie this Thursday have sold out.

Stadiums with a capacity of over 5,000 can accommodate up to 500 spectators from today onwards and therefore this includes the July 8 provincial U20 quarter final in Semple Stadium in Thurles.

Limerick are managed by Jerry O'Sullivan and are looking to repeat the one-point victories over Tipperary in the last two Munster U20 Football Championships.

The Limerick v Tipperary game has a 7.30 start with the winner progressing to a July 15 semi final with Waterford or Clare.

As the capacity of Fraher Field Dungarvan is less than 5,000, only 200 spectators will be allowed to attend Thursday’s Clare v Waterford U20 match and tickets will be allocated only to both participating counties. This Waterford-Clare U20 game will be streamed live by Munster GAA as a cost of 5euro. There is no live streaming planned at present for the Limerick v Tipperary U20 game. 

Next Saturday, Billy Lee's Limerick senior footballers are back in championship action - they play Cork in the LIT Gaelic Grounds at 3pm in the Munster SFC semi final.

According to Munster GAA, confirmation of the permissible number of spectators for that senior tie will be confirmed in conjunction with the Government authorities in the next couple of days.
