Leinster rivals Meath and Kildare will contest the Allianz Hurling League Division 2B final following today's final round action which saw Meath, Mayo and London register wins.

FORMER Meath senior football team manager Eamonn Barry was barred from standing for the position of coaching officer — a post he held for the last 12 months — at last night’s adjourned county convention in Navan.

O’LOUGHLIN GAELS from Kilkenny claimed their first Féile na nGael Division One title when they defeated Limerick’s Na Piarsaigh (3-7 to 0-4) at Pearse Stadium in Galway yesterday.

MEATH SHC champions Kildalkey are through to a third successive final following a 1-13 to 1-7 win over Trim at Pairc Tailteann on Saturday.

Former All-Ireland winning Offaly forward, Michael Duignan, has quit as Meath senior hurling manager after two years in charge of the Royal County.
