St Flannans’ footballers are in Corn Ui Mhuiri action this afternoon.
The Ennis secondary school are travelling to Limerick for a quarter final meeting with St Brendan’s of Killarney.
Flannans are experienced in the competition and have made it to the quarter final without fail for the past decade, however they’re playing the tournament’s most successful team – the Kerry side have won it outright 22 times.
Flannans have won the Cup three times, most recently as 1995, but Flannans’ selector Benny Duggan says they’re not concerned with the past:
That one gets underway in Ballyagran at 1pm.
Elsewhere, in second-level football:
St Caimins Community School, Shannon meet St Clement’s College of Limerick in the Quarter Final of the U19’s D Cup.
Meanwhile, round 1 of the U15’s C Cup sees Scariff Community College playing Pallaskenry’s Salesian Secondary College.
And the U15 hurlers from Ennistymon Vocational School meet Desmond College, Gortboy in Round 1 of the E Cup.
