BurgerKing aim to end season in style

THE top basketball players in Ireland will be in action at the UL Arena over the weekend and BurgerKing Limerick intend to finish off the season in style by lifting the National Championship for the very first time and giving the fans the perfect result.

“We have put a lot energy and effort into promoting the event and now all we need is to get the result,” he said. “There is a great reaction in the city at the moment and I think we will get the crowds.”

And the UL women’s team who have won both the National Cup and ESB SuperLeague titles this year are the raging hot favourites to complete the clean sweep for Tom Hehir’s brother, Tony, who coached them to what has been a remarkable and memorable season. The top eight teams from the ESB Men’s SuperLeague and the top four from the women’s equivalent will assemble at the state of the art Limerick University Arena for the annual showdown that decides the last major competition of the basketball season.
