Cidona deal announced for Tipp

Cidona has announced a sponsorship deal with the Tipperary GAA County Board which covers all games in the 2004/2005 club championships.

Over 80 Tipperary clubs will be part of the sponsorship as it incorporates all hurling and football games from minor to senior.

The new format county senior hurling championship, already underway, involves almost 50 games with 25 teams battling it out to win the Dan Breen Cup.

The 2003 champions Toomevara are hot favourites to retain the trophy, while Cahir will be hoping to retain the senior football title following their historic first title last year.
