Family affair as twins kit out for Limerick’s All-Ireland final tilt

IT’S said that if you puck a sliotar in Patrickswell the likelihood is that it will end up in the hands of a Bennis, a Foley or a Kirby.

A recent double arrival in the village has now created a new bond between the three Limerick hurling gdynasties in the lead in to Sunday’s showdown with Kilkenny.

The families will be out in force next Sunday at Croke Park playing important roles in Limerick’s bid to bring back the McCarthy cup to the Well for the first time since 1973.
