Five inter-county camogie stars visited Monroe's Tavern, Galway last Monday (9th February 2026) ahead of the start of the 2026 National Camogie Leagues, thanks to new sponsors Centra.
All-Ireland champions Galway make their competitive bow this season when they host Kilkenny in Duggan Park, Ballinasloe next Saturday (14th) at 2pm.
The Tribeswomen reached last year's decider, their fifth final in succession, but were well beaten by Cork, the same team they avenged in the championship's biggest game in Croke Park in August.
This season marks 50 years of the Camogie Leagues competition and the beginning of an exciting new partnership for Centra and the Camogie Association.
Leading up to the game, Galway forward and two-time All-Star Niamh Mallon chatted to Galway Bay FM's Darren Kelly and she couldn't hide the smile when reflecting on the All-Ireland success.
Cork's Laura Hayes is very familiar with the Galway senior team, even if getting a chance to see the city on a non-match day is a novelty. She was next to chat to Darren.
Dublin's Aisling Maher is glad to be back looking forward to action after a dramatic year for camogie in general and a disappointing one for Dublin.
Laois are back in intermediate camogie following their All-Ireland premier junior title win last year and have a Division 2A campaign ahead. But last year in Croke Park, Laois were back.
Last up was Armagh's Rachael Merry. They have a bye in the opening round but, chatting to Darren, Rachael was enjoying her trip down west.
