The scene is set for what promises to be a most intriguing day as we look forward to the Clean Ireland Recycling Senior and Intermediate Hurling County Finals next Sunday, October 25th, in Semple Stadium.
The main event which is for the Dan Breen Cup between Nenagh Éire Óg and Thurles Sarsfields throws in at 3:15pm while the Intermediate Final between Clonakenny and Thurles Sarsfields throws in at 1pm.
Thurles Sarsfields will be banking on their vast experience to make it back to back senior titles as they seek to add to their impressive haul of 33 county titles while Nenagh Éire Óg will have a huge say in affairs on Sunday as they bid to bring Dan Breen back to their home town for only the second time, the only other occasion being back in 1995.
In the Intermediate Hurling Final the Mid pairing of Thurles Sarsfields and Clonakenny will certainly make for a mouth-watering opener to the day. Sarsfields are there after steering a safe passage through their semi-final defeating Ballinahinch 1-22 to 2-15. It is another great achievement for the Thurles club as they hope to go one better than last year when they contested both finals, losing the intermediate final to Moyne Templetuohy. Clonakenny on the other hand are aiming for senior status and will be fully focused on emulating the historic club side of 1967 when they won the County Intermediate title by defeating Kilsheelan 8-6 to 2-2.
Admission Details
Both stands will be open for next Sunday’s finals. Admission is €15 with €5 concession at stile 1 Old Stand and at stile 52 New Stand with valid photo id. Tickets can be purchased at each of the four booths around the vicinity of Semple Stadium.
