The 2025 Women’s Premier Division season will have 13 fixtures broadcast live on TV, more than ever before, courtesy of an extended partnership with TG4.

This will be the fifth successive season that TG4 has committed to promoting the highest level of women’s domestic football in Ireland.

Along with the All-Island Cup Final, TG4 will have their cameras at 13 Premier Division games to deliver all of the action via Spórt TG4’s Sacar Beo.

The average TV viewership of the League has risen by 70% with the average peak audience jumping frrom 24,009 to 33,608 last season.

League of Ireland director Mark Scanlon said: “It is fantastic to continue our partnership with TG4 to broadcast live games of the SSE Airtricity Women’s Premier Division on national TV. 

"A significant part of the League’s growth has been the increased visibility and TG4 have been key to that over the past four seasons with 38 games shown in total. 

"Now that will be increased for the 2025 campaign and we are looking forward to seeing those games reach an even wider audience.” 

TG4 head of sport Rónán Ó Coisdealbha said: "TG4 is looking forward to another season of the SSE Airtricity Women’s Premier Division and we are very pleased to continue supporting women’s domestic football. 

"Broadcasting women’s sport has been an integral part of TG4’s core values since we came on air in 1996 and we would like to thank the FAI for giving us the opportunity to showcase women’s football."

The selection of the first set of live game will be confirmed in due course.
