Crusheen/Tubber’s under 21 hurling manager claims his team is relishing the opportunity as they compete in the A Final for the first time.
The north Clare outfit were under 21 B winners in 2018 and weren’t considered to be among the favourites for this year’s title race.
But after coming through Scariff/Ogonnelloe and St. Joseph’s Doora/Barefield, they face Kilmaley this Saturday in Cusack Park.
Pat Taaffe says they have surpassed all expectations.
Throw-in at Cusack Park on Saturday is 2pm and Clare FM will provide live coverage in association with The Bunker Bar and Restaurant at Woodstock Golf and Country Club, Ennis.
