Swords seek Star repeat to keep title hopes alive

After the excitement of National Cup, it’s back to Premier league action this weekend, with Belfast Star and Travelodge Swords Thunder topping the bill.

This is the third time the sides have met this season, with Star defeating the Dublin outfit by 10 points in the first leg only for Swords to eliminate them last week with a 12-point win.

Swords are the only team putting up a stern challenge to C&S UCC Demons in the Premier League and coach Dave Baker believes this is a crucial game if they intend to be serious title challengers.
