The under 21 Hurling Championships begin this weekend across three grades.
In the A competition, two quarter-finals on Saturday see St. Joseph’s Doora/Barefield face Clarecastle; while Kilmaley will collide with Sixmilebridge.
Cratloe take on Scariff/Ogonnelloe in the preliminary round but defending champions Inagh/Kilnamona, who have teams in A and C, wait until Sunday to meet Bodyke/O’Callaghan’s Mills.
Their manager Brian James Foudy says having two teams assists with bringing underage players through.
