Kildare Camogie team ready to battle it out with Kilkenny for a place in the All-Ireland final

It's a big day for the camogie players of Kildare as the senior ladies side are set to take on Kilkenny in the Liberty Insurance All-Ireland Intermediate Championship semi-final this afternoon in Nenagh.

The Lilywhites will be taking on the black and amber's second team and they will be hoping to secure a place in the All-Ireland final for the second year in a row after losing out to Waterford in last year's decider. Kilkenny themselves are no strangers to the Intermediate Championship final, as they were beaten in the 2014 showpiece event by a Limerick side that was led by current Kildare senior hurling manager Joe Quaid.

A victory for Kildare today would cap off a great week for camogie in the county after the U16 girls side sealed the All-Ireland title by defeating Carlow last Sunday.

Throw-in is scheduled for 2.30pm in Nenagh this afternoon and KildareNow will bring you updates from the game as it happens.
