ARD-NA-CREGG CUP SEMI-FINAL ON SUNDAY

ARD-NA-CREGG CUP SEMI-FINAL IN ATHLONE

BUCCANEERS THIRDS square up to Westport Seconds in the semi-final of the Ard-Na-Cregg Cup with the action kicking off in Dubarry Park at 2.30 p.m. on Sunday. It is difficult to gauge the prospects of this Pirates crew for they have received walkovers in the previous two rounds. Meanwhile, the Bulls look to be more battle-hardened having to overcome University of Galway at home and An Ghaeltacht away. But Buccs have an interesting mix of guile and youth and Sunday’s duel can be a tight affair with the Shannonsiders hoping that home advantage may pay dividends.
