Déise begin All-Ireland series away to Donegal

This week heralds the start of the All-Ireland Ladies' Football Championship with Waterford facing a tough challenge in Group B, but, it is a challenge that they have already surmounted in the league.

Pat Sullivan's side open up their campaign with the long trip to face Donegal on Saturday.

That's followed by a home game with the All-Ireland Champions Meath coming to Fraher Field next Sunday.

Waterford have already beaten both sides in the league. They had eight points to spare over Donegal, while they managed to topple the defending All-Ireland champions by a single point in a historic win.
