TV GUIDE: It is another action packed weekend of sport on TV with the return of the national football and hurling leagues, URC returns and the Premier League - all you need to know here. 

Don’t Miss: The national football and hurling leagues are back in action this weekend. The Ladies football league kicks off with 2024 All-Ireland champions taking on the 2025 champions when Kerry make the trip to Parnell Park to take on Dublin. There will also be new rules in play so it adds further intrigue to the opening clash. In the men's football league Dublin take on Donegal in their opener. It's a clash of close neighbours when Galway go head-to-head with Mayo in Salthill. In the hurling, Cork will open their account against Waterford. Watch all the action live on TG4. 

Set the Sky Box: After an exciting weekend of European action we return to the URC. First up are Munster when they welcome Dragons to Virgin Media Park in Cork. Saturday Ulster make the trip to Scarlets. The last of the Irish in action are Connacht and Leinster in an interpro derby. This will be a big occasion for Connacht as they will play for the first time in front of the new Clan Stand will be the new home for 6,555 supporters and increasing the capacity at the Dexcom Stadium to approximately 12,500. Watch all the action live on TG4 and Premier Sports.

Streaming Pick: One Night in Millstreet is a snapshot of Ireland in 1995 told through a high stakes fight in Millstreet, Cork between the then unknown underdog Steve Collins and champion Chris Eubank in an against-all-odds sporting event which gripped the entire nations.
