WITH ALL FOUR provincial finals wrapped up, the TG4 All-Ireland Senior Championship groupings have been confirmed.

Kerry and Armagh both completed three-in-a-rows in Munster and Ulster on Sunday. Galway previously hit that same mark in Connacht and All-Ireland champions Dublin lifted their 13th consecutive Leinster crown.

So here are the groups, with each comprising a provincial winner, another’s runner-up, and a third/fourth-placed team.

2026 LGFA Senior All-Ireland series groupings

• Group 1: Armagh, Waterford, Cork.
• Group 2: Kerry, Kildare, Tipperary.
• Group 3: Dublin, Mayo, Donegal.
• Group 4: Galway, Tyrone, Meath.

The top teams progress to the All-Ireland quarter-finals from each group, with the group winners securing home advantage for the last eight. A draw will take place ahead of the knockout rounds. The team that finishes bottom faces a relegation battle.

The senior group stages get underway on the weekend of 6-7 June, with fixtures yet to be confirmed. There will be action for three consecutive weekends, before a break weekend, while the quarter-finals are slated for the weekend of 4-5 July.

Here’s how the Road to Croker is shaping up.
