Galway have named an unchanged team for Sunday’s All-Ireland camogie final against Cork.

For the third game in succession, manager Cathal Murray has gone with the same 15.

Two-time Player of the Year Aoife Donohue, who departed the semi-final on 41 minutes because of a knee injury, is named at left-half forward.

2025 All-Star forward Niamh Mallon, who hasn’t featured since injuring her shoulder half an hour into their championship opener against Cork in early June, will again take her place among the subs.

Five-time All-Star Shauna Healy, who returned to the panel in recent weeks after giving birth to her second child in April, has been included among the replacements for the first time since that return.

Sabina Rabbitte, who Murray last week ruled out, stating that the forward had undergone surgery for the thumb injury picked up in the semi-final, is listed as wearing No.35 in the panel announcement put out by Galway Camogie on Friday evening.

Galway: Sarah Healy; R Hanniffy, R Black, D Higgins; K Manning, C Hickey, KA Porter; A Hesnan, C Dolan; Á Keane, N McPeake, A Donohue; N Niland, A O'Reilly, C Kelly.

Subs: F Ryan, L Freeney, R Kelly, A Crowe, A Kelly, K Madden, A Lynskey, N Mallon, M Dillon, L Kelly, S Corcoran, N McInerney, A Barry, T Canning, J Hughes, Shauna Healy, A Carr, K Lawless, E Madden, A Greaney, S Rabbitte, E Brogan, J Daly.
