This year’s All-Ireland hurling club final on St Patrick’s Day will feature reigning champions Portumna of Galway and Waterford's De La Salle after they saw off the challenges of Ballyhale Shamrocks and Cushendall respectively in the semi-finals last weekend.

Mayo should seize two vital points in Charlestown on Sunday
Mayo and Westmeath come face to face this Sunday in Fr O’Hara Park Charlestown in a game that both sides badly need to get something out of. Westmeath are point-less after their two disappointing defeats to Galway and Derry and a hat-trick of losses would leave them staring down the barrel of relegation to division two. A massive concern, too, for them is that they are minus 19 in the division scoring charts which indicates some major problems at the back for a side that prided themselves on being tight as a drum last season.
Ballina battle for Mayo men
Fixture pile ups usually occur for club sides in Mayo in late summer, if the senior inter-county team are involved in championship action at the business end of the season. But last weekend, as it will again this weekend, it came to a log jam for both the senior inter-county side and u21 side. Normally before inter-county games the senior team management announce their team on a Thursday evening, bar any niggling injuries that may be hanging around. But last week, John O’Mahony informed the press and public through county PRO Kevin O’Toole that there would be no side named until Sunday morning due to the involvement of the u21s in Connacht Championship action.

Cats and Rossies finish level in tense intermediate championship
Kilkenny ladies could be forgiven for facing Roscommon somewhat with intrepidation in this TG4 intermediate ladies football fixture, having suffered a heavy defeat to the Rossies in the national league semi final in April. The Cats were well beaten by Longford in their opening game of the championship while Roscommon managed a draw with Longford a week earlier. However the form book was well and truly torn up and the Cats were unlucky not to come away with a win at Larchfield on Sunday last.
