The Football Association of Ireland and TG4 is delighted to announce a broadcast deal for the SSE Airtricity Women’s Premier Division for a third consecutive season.

TG4’s coverage of the Women’s Premier Division began in 2021 and the 2023 season will see a further increase in coverage with 12 live games to be shown this year.

The Sacar Beo programme will once again be broadcast on TG4 and globally on the TG4 Player App, with detailed analysis and live interviews complementing the match coverage.

TG4’s Head of Sport, Rónán Ó Coisdealbha said: “TG4 are looking forward to broadcasting the SSE Airtricity Women's Premier Division on free-to-air television again for the coming season and this live coverage strengthens the station’s commitment to women’s football.

“We have an exciting year ahead for women’s football and the live television coverage of the Women's Premier Division will be available to viewers far and wide.”

League of Ireland Director Mark Scanlon said: “We are delighted to continue our relationship with TG4 and bring more visibility to the SSE Airtricity Women’s Premier Division as it continues to grow year on year.

“As part of our rebrand of the League of Ireland, we want to connect with as many fans as possible and TG4 have helped us to reach new audiences and have done a fantastic job with their production around each game.

“The title race has gone to the wire in each of the last two seasons and the TG4 cameras have been on hand to capture all of the drama and high quality action and so we are looking forward to the 2023 season being even bigger and better than ever before.”

FAI CEO Jonathan Hill added: “We are committed to growing our overall broadcast output for the LOI and to improving both the quality and depth of our coverage. Along with our commitment to showing every Women’s Premier Division game live via LOITV, this TG4 deal has taken our coverage to a different level from before and we would like to continue to build on the excellent relationship we have developed with TG4 as ultimately the clubs and all of their fans benefit from the relationship.”

Alongside TG4’s coverage of the SSE Airtricity Women’s Premier Division, LOITV will also cover the rest of the 2023 League of Ireland season. The season pass is now on sale on www.loitv.ie offering over 440 games for €120.

Details of the remaining games to be broadcast live on TG4 will be announced in due course.
