Cathaoirleach Comhairle Laighean Derek Kent said: “This is a celebration of our young players and an investment in the future of our games.

“We want every child involved in GAA to feel connected to the bigger picture to see our players in action, feel the energy of championship days, and be inspired by their Hurling heroes.

“By offering 20,000 free tickets to our players, we’re not only giving them a great day out — we’re showing them they belong to something special.”
