It's the big soccer kick-off in Tipperary this weekend - John Delaney Cup final on Sunday

The Tipperary Southern and District League (TSDL) kicks-off big time this weekend with the first full programme of junior football for the new season.

The weekend's action begins on Saturday night with a Premier League clash at Bansha between West Tipperary neighbours Bansha Celtic and St. Michael's. This will also be St. Michael's last competitive outing before their 2019 FAI Junior Cup final on Saturday week, August 31, against Sheriff YC of Dublin. That game will take place at Deasy Park in Galway City.

On this coming Sunday there is also the John Delaney Cup final at the Dr Pat O'Callaghan Complex in Clonmel. Here hosts, Clonmel Town will take on Thurles side Peake Villa for the season's first silverware.

There are two Premier League ties on Sunday; four in Division 1, four in Division 2, and another four in Division 3.

TSDL Youths football will return on Saturday, August 31.
