GAA fixtures for the week ahead

The dates, times and venues are in for this week’s key Gaelic football and hurling games.

THE LAST ROUND of games in the Allianz hurling league take place this weekend.

The state of play in Division 1A is that nothing has yet to be decided.

All of the six teams can reach the league semi-finals ahead of next Sunday’s final round of games.

And equally each of the six counties could end up in the relegation play-off to battle the drop.

Waterford currently top the table on five points while Clare, Cork, Kilkenny and Tipperary are all on four points, and Galway are bottom of the table on three points.

Here are next Sunday’s three encounters.

In Division 1B, Limerick are guaranteed a spot in the final where they will most likely be joined by Dublin, who only need a point from their last game at home to Carlow.
