Tá súil agam go mbainfidh sibh an taitneamh as an cluiche seo inniu. I wish to extend a warm welcome to all the players, Management teams and officials along to Austin Stack Park, Tralee today. Unfortunately, we won’t have any supporters for this year’s League campaign but all going well, by Championship time a limited number of supporters will hopefully be allowed attend the games. Galway travel to Kerry today for their first competitive match since last year’s Connacht championship defeat to near neighbours Mayo and Kerry are in a similar position with this being their first competitive match since last November’s Munster Championship loss to Cork at Páirc Uí Chaoimh. Today is a very important game for both teams but Kerry in particular will be hoping to pull off a win at home. Given the long lay off and the compressed nature of this year’s competition, it is difficult to predict how the league will unfold for Counties this year. The condensed nature of the League will I believe prove very challenging for all Counties in the prevention and management of injuries which will be a key consideration.

It gives me great pleasure to extend a warm welcome to you here to Semple Stadium Thurles on this most significant occasion and a match that forms part of the landmark that is the start of the 2020 inter-county GAA Championships, and also draws down the curtain on the Allianz Hurling Leagues.

In many ways the world we knew and took for granted last March seems a lot longer than seven months ago.
