Seó Spóirt is presented by former Kerry footballer Dara Ó Cinnéide, along with regular guest Seán Bán Breathnach.

The show usually consists of a discussion of recent action and events from the worlds of GAA and rugby, with comment and analysis from different guests each week. Among the regular guests are Darragh Ó Sé, Coman Goggins, Liam Rushe, Pat Fleury, Páidí Ó Sé, Ger Loughnane, Kevin Cassidy, Dónal O'Grady, Ger Loughnane, Aodán Mac Gearailt, Tomás Ó Flatharta, John Allen, Ray Silke, Paul Galvin, Charlie Vernon and Micheál Ó Muircheartaigh.

The show also includes interviews with players and managers, and other reports by Gemma Ní Chionnaith.

Another regular feature is "Thar an Trasnán" ("Over the Bar") competition, in which school-level football and hurling teams compete to see who can put the ball over the bar the most times.

Seó Spóirt first went on air on February 2, 2007. Mícheál Ó Dómhnaill hosted the first series, before making way for Dara Ó Cinnéide in 2009.
