Live Women’s Football

On Sunday 26th of April Near FM will broadcast live the FAI Women’s National League Cup Final between local club Raheny Utd and Peamount Utd. Live from Tolka Park, our coverage begins at 4pm (Kick off 4.30pm) and as well as the live commentary we will have interviews with coaches, players and fans of both clubs as well as FAI officials. We will be there for the entire match, so if it goes to extra time and penalties, you will not miss a thing on Near FM.

This coverage is part of our Northside Football 2 series and is made possible with the assistance of the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland Sound and Vision scheme.
