Kilkenny head to Galway for Shefflin reunion on May Bank Holiday weekend

It’s a standout in the 2022 Leinster senior hurling championship, with fixtures confirmed this afternoon.

THE ROUND-ROBIN fixture details for the 2022 Leinster senior hurling championship have been confirmed.

Reigning champions Kilkenny open their title defence with a trip to Westmeath on the weekend of 16/17 April, with Dublin and Laois, and Wexford and Galway, also facing off in the opening round.
