Leinster GAA is offering up to 20,000 free tickets for underage teams to attend the Leinster and Joe McDonagh Cup Finals.
The Joe McDonagh Cup final, between Laois and Kildare, plus the Leinster final, between Kilkenny and Galway, are scheduled for Sunday, June 8.
And in a bid to boost the attendance at both games, Leinster GAA has announced this ticket plan.
Leinster GAA say the initiative is part of their ‘ongoing commitment to youth participation and community engagement, providing young players with the opportunity to experience the excitement and atmosphere of Senior Hurling Championship match days’.
Speaking about the initiative, 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 their Hurling heros.
“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.”
Eligible groups must consist of a minimum of 10 children (U-14 or younger), and must be accompanied by at least two supervising adults per group (1 adult per 10 children).
Applications must be submitted by Club Secretaries no later than 12pm on Wednesday, 4.
All tickets must be booked in advance and are non-transferable.
Leinster GAA encourages all GAA Teams to apply early to avoid disappointment.
This initiative is expected to generate significant interest and is subject to availability.
