That's quite complex. The sporting authority, e.g. Pro 12, normally license one or several TV companies (broadcasters), e.g. TG4, the rights to broadcast the game live and often highlights and re-runs, and for pay-per-view, sometimes usage of moving footage in news reports.
The broadcaster may have used their own staff or hired someone like Aperture Media to shoot the event, e.g. I think they might do all televised Leinster RDS matches for Sky and TG4.
I would guess that copyright ownership is probably held by the sporting authority, but licence to use given to the broadcaster, assuming that whoever actually shoots it is hired on a "work for hire" basis - otherwise they might own the copyright by default.
And that's not counting the interesting world of performer image rights.
I'm not a lawyer nor would I want to be
