Déise dairy farmers have stepped up to sponsor the Waterford ladies football team.

The three-year sponsorship deal is for between €15,000 and €20,000 per year. The plan is that every Déise dairy farmer would contribute €100/ year.

In return, they will be promoting the positives of dairy farming on the jersey.

Knockanore dairy farmer Kevin Moloney says they have got enough money together for this year, with a further call next year.
