The defending Clare and Munster Hurling champions are back in action this weekend in the quarter finals of the 2017 championship.
Ballyea will take on a Newmarket side who have bounced back strongly from contesting last years relegation final, with the Blues unbeaten so far in their two championship games.
Former All Ireland winner Colin Ryan says the club have refocused quickly after a disappointing 2016.
Meanwhile Sixmilebridge boss John O’Meara is hopeful they can build on their recent success which has seen them win two titles so far this decade.
They take on neighbours Cratloe for the second time in three years at the quarter final stage, with the Bridge coming out on top en route to the title in 2015.
O’Meara says they want to reap the benefit of the hard work put in by the club.
