Se n Maoilchiar in in RT GAA championship campaign

RT today launched its 2025 GAA Championships coverage with a powerful film that gets to the heart and soul of Ireland's passionate and enduring relationship with our national games. Featuring Se n Maoilchiar in the first Galway senior footballer from the Aran Islands the film was shot on Inis M r, at Kilmurvey beach and Kilronan ball alley, and showcases international landmarks such as the world-famous D n Aonghusa.

RT kicks off its live Championship action from this weekend, continuing its year-round free-to-air GAA coverage across video, audio and online across RT One, RT Player, RT Radio 1, RT Raidi Na Gaeltachta, RT Radio app, RT .ie and RT GAA Podcast.

With fierce rivalries set to reignite, unforgettable moments waiting to unfold, and every county dreaming of glory, the 2025 GAA Championships promises to be unmissable and RT has every moment covered whether you're at home or on the go, RT , Ireland's National Public Service media, remains the only broadcaster in Ireland with GAA coverage on all platforms.

Live TV coverage begins on The Sunday Game Live on Sunday 6 April on RT 2 and RT Player when Joanne Cantwell will present live coverage of Donegal v Derry in the Ulster Senior Football Championship from Ballybofey (throw-in 2.00pm). That evening on RT 2 and RT Player, The Sunday Game highlights show returns with Jacqui Hurley at the helm.

This season sees the return of Kilkenny Hurling legend Henry Shefflin to The Sunday Game and The Sunday Game Live plus the arrival of Monaghan Football great Conor McManus alongside Derry's Chrissy McKaigue, both of whom have recently retired after stellar playing careers.

There will also be live coverage of all four provincial Football finals as well as the Munster and Leinster Hurling Finals, the Joe McDonagh Cup and Tailteann Cup Finals, plus the All-Ireland Semi-Finals in Football, Hurling and Camogie.

Additionally, Irish language television commentary will be available on select games from June 7 starting with the Munster Hurling Final and including the Leinster Hurling Final, All-Ireland Quarter-Finals, Semi-Finals and Finals in both Football and Hurling along with the All-Ireland Camogie Final and the Tailteann Cup Final.

And there will be full round-ups of the highlights and main talking points on the weekend television news bulletins at Six One and Nine O'Clock News with RT 's GAA Correspondent Marty Morrissey.

The Championship, presented by Damian Lawlor, returns to RT Radio 1 every Friday from April 4th at 10.00pm featuring news, previews and exclusive interviews to set you up for following all the weekend's action across RT Radio, Television and Online.

Declan McBennett, Group Head of Sport, RT , said: The sense of championship' remains unique in the Irish sporting psyche. Whether it's to Clones, Semple, the Hyde or ultimately Croke Park dreams are made and crushed in the heat of a Championship battle. RT remains uniquely privileged to capture and transmit those moments across our platforms and as with each passing year we hope for a dynamic thrilling and enthralling spectacle across all codes.
