TG4 All-Ireland Intermediate Ladies Football Championship Quarter-Finals
At Various · Various, Co. Roscommon
At Various · Various, Co. Roscommon
The Roscommon ladies footballers go into the TG4 All-Ireland Intermediate Championship quarter-final on Sunday 28 June with momentum behind them. They earned their place in the last eight by beating Down 2-13 to 1-12 in Enfield on 18 June - a result that manager Finbar Egan described as the players finally getting what they deserved. Their opponents are Leitrim, who beat Roscommon heavily in the Connacht final weeks earlier, so this is a rematch with something to prove on both sides. For Roscommon supporters making the journey, this is exactly the kind of knockout-round atmosphere that makes the All-Ireland series worth following.
This is a single-elimination quarter-final: win and you are in the semi-finals on 12 July, lose and your All-Ireland summer is over. The Intermediate Championship sits between Junior and Senior grade, and the winner earns promotion to Senior ladies football for the 2027 season - which gives every match an extra edge beyond the day itself. Leitrim have home advantage for this tie, with the match due to be played at Avant Money Parc Sean Mac Diarmada in Carrick-on-Shannon, Co. Leitrim - a well-run county ground that regularly hosts big championship days. TG4 carries extensive coverage of the All-Ireland series, and selected matches are broadcast live, so check the TG4 schedule and the LGFA website for broadcast information. Kick-off details will be confirmed on the ladiesgaelic.ie fixtures page as the date approaches.
Carrick-on-Shannon is roughly 50 km from Roscommon town, taking about 45 minutes by car via the N61 and N4. The town sits on the Leitrim border and is easily reached from most of Connacht. If you are travelling by public transport, Bus Eireann services run between Roscommon and Carrick-on-Shannon, and the town is on the Dublin-Sligo rail line. Street parking is available in Carrick-on-Shannon close to the ground, and the town is compact enough to walk from the main car parks. Arrive early on matchday as parking near GAA grounds fills up quickly.
If you are based in Roscommon for the weekend, the county has plenty to keep you occupied before or after the match. Roscommon Castle in the town centre is free to visit, and the area around Lough Ree offers good walks and water scenery. There is more to see in Roscommon and across Co. Roscommon.
