Dublin face Carlow in the Division Four tie at 1.00pm and Kildare take on Armagh at 3.00pm.

Speaking at today’s photocall President of the Camogie Association Aileen Lawlor said:
“This Sunday’s upcoming finals are of huge significance to all four sides; the opportunity to secure All Ireland silverware early in the season and provide a good spring board for championship is a massive attraction to all players. The leagues to date have been highly competitive and entertaining with a fantastic degree of skill and athleticism displayed at all grades.
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the Irish Daily Star for their continued support for the leagues and their strong promotion of the games.”
Speaking at this afternoon’s launch Irish Daily Star Sports Editor Eoin Brannigan said:
