The TG4 cameras will be in Ferrycarrig Park on Sunday, August 31 to broadcast this year's Women's All-Island Cup Final between Wexford and Bohemians.
This will be the third final in this competition’s history and a new name will be added to the list of honours following back-to-back wins for Galway United in 2023 and 2024.
There will be massive local interest in the fixture with Kilkenny's Orlaith Conlon, Ellen Molloy and Freya DeMange all featuring in the Wexford squad.

Wexford won the toss for home advantage and they will be hoping to make the most of that as Bohemians chase silverware in what is their first ever Final since establishing their senior women’s team in 2020.
This is Wexford’s first time reaching the final after twice losing to Galway United on penalties before a single goal from Molloy saw them succeed at the third attempt in July.
Goalkeeper Maria O’Sullivan recorded four clean sheets on their way to the Final as Wexford beat Lisburn Rangers, Shamrock Rovers and DLR Waves in Group B before edging past Peamount United in the Quarter-Finals and then Galway United in the Semi-Finals.
Bohemians may not have much experience of reaching Cup Finals at senior level but in goalkeeper Rachael Kelly and defender Lisa Murphy they have two stalwarts who have featured in all 11 games that the club has played in this competition.
Murphy is their top goalscorer following an early goal against Linfield and a brace against Glentoran, while she also converted the all-important penalty in a Semi-Final shoot-out victory over Shelbourne.
Alban Hysa’s team drew with both Sligo Rovers and Shelbourne in Group A before beating Linfield and then overcoming Glentoran in the Quarter-Finals ahead of their Semi-Final triumph over Shelbourne.
If the scores are level at full-time, this year’s Final will be decided by extra-time and a penalty shoot-out as both Wexford and Bohemians aim to outwit each other to become this year’s winners.
