Women’s sport has always been a priority for us and Mná na hÉireann feature strongly in our sports output. 2014 has been a bumper year on TG4 in this regard with our successful exclusive live coverage of the Ladies Singles Tennis Championships from Wimbledon, the Women’s Rugby World Cup, year-round coverage of Ladies Gaelic Football at all levels up to the recent All-Ireland Finals and now the World Boxing Championships”.
