The Galway Camogie team to play Offaly in Banagher on Saturday (2.30pm ) in their opening game of the championship has been selected by the management team of Tony Ward, Sharon Glynn and James McGrath.
There are three enforced changes from the team’s league semi-final loss to Cork in April. Therese Manton, Aislinn Connolly and Veronica Curtin are all unavailable due to injury, while Jessica Gill will unfortunately be out for the entire season, after having surgery recently on her cruciate ligament.
Niamh McGrath, who is only 16, makes her championship debut at centre-forward.
