Tribe want underage teams in Leinster

GALWAY hurling officials will soon sit down with their Leinster counterparts to see if their underage sides can also play in the province.

Galway’s move to the Leinster championship three years ago was solely for their senior side but moves are soon to begin to have the Tribesmen’s minor and U21 also participate there.

The initial three-year stay in Leinster was extended by a Congress decision which does not allow for the championship to be altered until after 2013. Galway hurling board chairman Joe Byrne said discussions would soon begin regarding their underage sides.
