Points are earned for goals, points, cards, appearances and clean sheets not to mention in a first for Munster GAA, points for assists for goals and points from play will also be included. All done in real-time.

Leader-boards will be updated in real time* and each game will have a dedicated chat zone so you can chat with other fans, a social hub so you can see the best of the Munster GAA tweets and for those not at the ground, a live commentary zone.

NOTE: While the game is updated in real-time, results will be finalised one hour after the game, this is to allow time to validate all the scores. In the event of a tie the person who registers first will be the winner so get in quick.

Entries close 30 minutes before throw-in.

The winner in each game will receive a prize of a pair of tickets for the next round of the Munster Senior Championship up to the finals in July.


How to play Munster GAA Fantasy Game

The Sportego System allows fans, who enjoy adding to their match-day experience, the opportunity to play a unique Pick-5 Fantasy Game for each Munster Senior Hurling Championship match. All you have to do is simply choose the FIVE players you think will have the biggest impact on the game!

Log onto the Munster Fantasy GAA website (www.munster.gaa.ie/fantasy), fill in your details, and then choose your selection of FIVE players across both teams.

You earn points from your players when they score a goal or a point, but they will lose points if they pick up a yellow, black or red card. We are now including points for scores from play and score assists for the Championship: Assist is the legitimate pass from either: the hand, foot or hurley to scorer from a team member. There must be clear evidence to prove that the assist was given by a fellow team member as outlined above. This eliminates flick ons that are unclear and 50/50 breaks. Munster GAA Fantasy Game reserve the right to call the assist and if there is any doubt the assist is not given.

The scoring is greater for backs/goalkeepers than it is for forwards and backs/goalkeepers can also pick up additional points if no goals are conceded. Teams/Players for selection will be posted on the website once they are available (normally 48 hours before throw in) and will be announced on Munster GAA twitter and Facebook.

NOTE: It is important to register early, as in the event of a tie, the person who registers first will be the winner. (If a player changes their selection, the time of the registered change applies) Munster GAA will continue to post updates via the website www.munster.gaa.ie and on Twitter and Facebook.
