This Sunday sees the first of the AIB All-Ireland Club Championships Finals take place with the Junior title up for grabs in Birr at 2.15pm.
Reigning All-Ireland champions Johnstownbridge of Kildare reached the final after defeating Kilmessan of Meath in the Leinster Championship decider. They then followed that win up with victory over Tara of London in the Preliminary Round. The Leinster and Kildare champions overcame Athleague of Roscommon a fortnight ago in what was to prove to be a hard-fought semi-final encounter.
Clare's Scariff/Ogonnelloe defeated O’Connells Tullysaran of Armagh in the semi-final having already claimed the Munster Championship title by defeating De La Salle of Waterford. The Clare side are looking to go one better than 2013 when they lost the All-Ireland Final to Myshall of Carlow.
Make sure you're there on Sunday for what looks set to be an epic encounter!
