Getting back to the knockout stages of the Glen Dimplex All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship after missing out last year was important for Tipperary but it is far from the extent of their ambitions.

Róisín Howard is part of an experienced core in the squad now and the Cahir dynamo was in typical all-action form during her side’s hard-fought 3-15 to 0-12 triumph over Wexford at Bellefield that ensured the Premiers’ qualification to the quarter-final at least.
