Kildare Intermediate Ladies Football skipper Aisling Holton has urged Lilywhites to pack Croke Park on Sunday to cheer on her team in the All Ireland.

Carbury native Aisling Holton, who is a primary school teacher, hopes support in the stands will be like an extra player when they battle Waterford.

Aisling said: "It's a great, great day for adults and kids alike. "To see your county in Croke Park with the possibility of winning an All Ireland title - there's not better day."

Players from all six counties involved in Sunday's TG4 All Ireland Ladies Gaelic Football Finals are united in their appeal to supporters to turn out in record numbers.

Kildare, Waterford, Cork, Dublin, Louth and Scotland have all backed a challenge by Ladies Gaelic Football Association to beat the attendance of 30,710 at this year's Women's FA Cup Final at Wembley.

LGFA President Marie Hickey said: "We want to surpass that and have the biggest attendance at a women's sporting event in Europe this year, and if we can beat our own record of 33,000 at the 2001 Finals, that would be even better again."

Kildare play Waterford in the TG4 All Ireland Ladies Intermediate Football Final in Croke Park at 1.45pm and KildareNow.com will be providing comprehensive coverage of the game.
