Limerick GAA broke the €2m mark in preparing their county teams in 2022, exceeding the figure recently reported in Galway.

Despite the reduced inter-county season, the All-Ireland senior hurling champions spent €2,297,886 on all their county teams, an increase of almost €1m from last year’s figure of €1,321,258, which was smaller due to the pandemic-affected season when the senior hurling championship was played on a smaller qualifier format and the SFC on a knock-out basis.
