THE ROUND-ROBIN fixture details for the 2022 Leinster senior hurling championship have been confirmed.
Reigning champions Kilkenny open their title defence with a trip to Westmeath on the weekend of 16/17 April, with Dublin and Laois, and Wexford and Galway, also facing off in the opening round.
But the Cats’ May Bank Holiday weekend visit to Galway is certainly a standout fixture, where Brian Cody and Henry Shefflin will go head-to-head on the line in provincial fare.
The Leinster final is scheduled for Saturday, 5 June, with the Joe McDonagh decider to be played the same day.
The fixtures details and competition lay-out are below.
