Clare U20 hurling manager Terence Fahy has been given a boost with the return to fitness of senior star Shane Meehan for the Banner’s crucial Munster championship clash with Cork.
The Banner clubman missed out on last weeks loss to Limerick with a hamstring issue, but returns to lead the attack for tomorrow’s game against the Rebels in O’Garney Park Sixmilebridge in place of Josh Guyler.
Jarlath Collins of Eire Óg misses out this time around after suffering a shoulder injury in that loss, and his place in the half-back line goes to Diarmuid Mullins.
Clare U20 v Cork (H): Cian Broderick; Ian McNamara, Adam Hogan, John Conneally; Diarmuid Mullins, Cian Galvin, Oisin Clune; Colm O’Meara, Conner Hegarty; Jack Kirwan, Patrick Crotty, Cormac Murphy; Shane Punch, Shane Meehan, Diarmaid Cahill.
Subs: Aaron Shanahan, Keelin Hartigan, Keith Smyth, Peter Power, Oisín O’Donnell, Gearoid Sheedy, Darragh Keogh, Josh Guyler, Oran Cahill.
The game starts in Sixmilebridge on Wednesday evening at 7pm with live commentary on Clare FM in association with Patrick Bourke’s Menswear, Ennis and Kilrush.
