Tickets for the Waterford Senior Hurling home games against Clare and Limerick will only be available through clubs.

Waterford County Board Chairman Paddy Joe Ryan told Damien Tiernan this morning on Déise Today they have to do this because of the restricted capacity at Walsh Park.

He says the price of playing the game in Walsh Park, which will give Waterford an advantage of qualifying for the knockout stages, is that the tickets will be distributed by the board through the clubs.

He says there is a very limited allocation and the clubs have to be looked after.

It’s expected the tickets will be divided on a pro rata basis of the levies that the clubs will pay for the re-development of Walsh Park. That has not been fully decided on yet but it looks like every club will have to get an allocation and the bigger clubs will get a bigger allocation than the smaller clubs.

Paddy Joe Ryan has asked the clubs to try and look after people who are regulars going to games. He is advising people to put in their names to clubs.

He says maybe Clare will not use their full allocation and there may be more tickets to distribute in Waterford.
