Tough to callas Glanmire look to show no Mercy

THE Women’s SuperLeague final on Sunday afternoon (1.30pm) at the Mardyke Arena will feature two first-timers as Vienna Woods Glanmire and Carna Transport Mercy bid to win the title for a first time.

For both teams it is a huge occasion and for Glanmire it could be the perfect end to a dream season. From early on, Glanmire were being tipped as contenders for cup and league honours, while Mercy were also a team on everyone’s lips.

“It’s true that both teams were being tipped by the pundits but it’s one thing saying it and another thing doing it,” Glanmire coach Mark Scannell said. “But I have to say that this has been the most hard-working team I have ever worked with. They were always there for training, gave it everything and they always had a focus.
