Draw a boon in disguise for Adare hurlers
The first county SHC and SFC double in the club’s history would have created its own problems, officials admitted yesterday.
As a consequence of the football final draw with Monaleen, the hurlers have now been able to prepare thoroughly for the pick of the weekend’s provincial club hurling ties. “We’d have taken the victory, have no doubt about that,” said team official Kevin O’Mahony. “But there might have been a price to pay. It’s not every day a club wins both senior titles and if we had managed to pull it off, you can take it there would have been some celebrations.
