Cork’s All Ireland senior hurling finalists and its All Ireland winning under 20 and minor hurling teams are set to be honoured in a ‘virtual homecoming’ which will broadcast online by the Irish Examiner on Monday.

The Lord Mayor of Cork, Cllr Colm Kelleher, will lead the online event in place of the traditional homecoming on the Grand Parade which could not take place this year due to public health restrictions.
