UKAF v Irish Defence Forces: How to watch key football double header live from Dublin

An Irish Defence Forces v UKAF battle awaits in Dublin

The latest chapter in the rivalry between the UK Armed Forces and the Irish Defence Forces will be shown live on the BFBS Forces News YouTube and on BFBS TV (for serving personnel overseas only) on 10 December.

Coverage of the women's contest will begin at 12:45 GMT as the UK Armed Forces team, who secured an impressive win over the German Bundeswehr last month, look to continue their good form.

The men's fixture has seen UKAF reign victorious over the past two years, but can the Irish fight back when coverage begins at 16:45 GMT.

Major Joe Collins' team have had an up-and-down winter as they lost the Kentish Cup to the French Armed Forces but bounced back with a penalty shoot-out win against the Germans.

Can both UKAF sides end 2025 with a defining win?
