Offaly U20 Hurling Championship

Post by Dodge83 »

With the championship ready to start in less than 2 weeks time , is it hard to look past Kk again ? Or can CRCC go one better than last year and win the title ? Will SBK push on and be victorious?

SBK won the corresponding minor championship to the best of my knowledge.

K/K didn’t even make the final.

Hasn’t been a winner other than K/K since 2019 who are after 7 in a row.

Considering they’ve also won 6 of the last 7 minors if they do win this year’s U20 they could feasibly go on and claim 10 U20’s in a row.

Is it not a fair point to make when clubs fail to field?. It is shocking that two clubs joined together can't field at u20. Hardly good is it?

Theres no panic at all. Sometimes real life gets in the way. As the sayings go in south and went Offaly- no point winning the county final if the hay/silage is still in the field.

There'll be hurling in Kinnitty and Lusmagh this year, next year and the year after that.
