This is what they call high season.

Buckle up, cancel your own sessions, accept once and for all that the GAA is - despite the old coach in the club constantly telling you otherwise - a spectator sport. Throughout this week, across four different days and three stations, there will be eight matches available to view. From the Dublin and Galway All-Ireland semi-final on Saturday to the all-Ulster affair the following day at Croke Park, there's going to be feast across all codes and age groups starting on the Bank Holiday Monday with some of the ladies football action. TG4 kick off the coverage with the Ladies football quarter-finals, showing games in both the intermediate and senior tiers and, as customary, it's TG4 again showing another clinker on Wednesday night that no-one else seemed to bother fighting over the rights to broadcast - the All-Ireland under-21 hurling semi-finals. Hurling, football, minors, under-21s, seniors and ladies - here's your schedule.
