Sarsfields out to retain Minor crown

Holders Sarsfields go into tonight’s Rebel Óg Premier 1 MHC final against Douglas in Mallow at 8.15pm (the venue last night changed from Páirc Uí Rinn due to weather conditions) with nine of the side which claimed victory after a replay against Killeagh/Ita’s last year.

While he knows it’s no guarantee of success, Sars manager Barry Myers is hopeful that past experience will provide something valuable to draw upon.

“Last year, in the drawn final against Killeagh/Ita’s, we were definitely nervous early on,” he says.
