It's set to be a busy weekend with four Waterford teams in action in their respective National league encounters.
It all gets underway on Saturday with two South-East derbies in store, first up at 2pm sees the Waterford Camogie team face Wexford in De La Salle - Gracedieu. Sean Power's side got off to the best possible start in Division 1B last weekend with a comprehensive win away to Offaly.

On Saturday at 4pm, Waterford footballer's will be searching for their first win in Division 4 of the Allianz League when Wexford visit the SETU Arena in Carriganore (4pm throw-in). The Déise went down to Sligo by 0-21 to 0-13 last weekend while the Slaneysiders picked up their first win of the campaign last Sunday with a home win over Leitrim. This 4th round clash is one that both counties will be targeting to get points on the board.
Fraher Field is the venue for Sunday afternoon's Allianz hurling league Division 1 clash between Waterford and Antrim (1pm throw-in) where the Déise will be aiming to maintain their unbeaten start to the new season.
An opening day draw with Dublin was followed by a twelve point win over Laois last time out. Antrim have suffered back to back defeats at the hands of Kilkenny and Dublin. There was only a puck of the ball between the sides when they clashed in Belfast last season. We'll have live commentary from the Dungarvan venue thanks to George Corbett Skoda, with Kieran O' Connor and Michael Ryan on duty.
This weekends Allianz Football & Hurling matches.

At the same time on Sunday, Waterford will be hoping to make it three wins on the bounce in Division 1 of the Lidl Ladies National football league when they welcome unbeaten Galway to the Dungarvan GAA Grounds.
Pat Sullivan's charges recorded an impressive eight point win in Donegal last weekend with Lauren McGregor and Annie Fitzgerald getting the all important goals.
Galway defeated Cork last weekend and sit just above the Déise on the league table in what is turning out to be a fiercely competitive division. It's the final home game of the campaign for Waterford.
"They would just be enormously proud of each medal [...] and everything that we did"
