It's a local derby affair this afternoon as the All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship commences.
Waterford and Kilkenny will lock horns in a much anticipated opening round clash at 2pm at Walsh Park as Beth Carton’s Waterford take on Denise Gaule’s Kilkenny.
The Deise ladies have yet to beat their opponents in the group stages so they will be hoping they can take that scalp on their journey this weekend.
Kilkenny will need to regroup and go again, as has become the familiar opening phrase to describe the Cats season ahead.
If they are to make their fifth consecutive All-Ireland Senior Final appearance, they will need to prove to themselves first and foremost that they can produce that title-winning confidence all the way to December, starting from this weekend’s opening round fixture.
It's going to be a good game, and WLR will have updates from Walsh park this afternoon.
