Fixture standoff halts All-Ireland Freshers Hurling final

The All-Ireland Freshers Hurling Final was thrown into chaos after the University of Limerick refused to play the game at the home of their opponents Limerick IT this afternoon.

The final had been fixed for the grounds of Mary Immaculate College, but was switched after Croke Park chiefs deemed their grounds ‘unsuitable’. LIT won the subsequent toss and were awarded home advantage.
