Clara to face Ballyhale Shamrock in Kilkenny senior hurling county final

Kilkenny senior hurling champions Clara will face off against leading title contenders Ballyhale Shamrocks for a place in this year's county final. 

Clara, who beat Dicksboro in their quarter-final last weekend, were paired with 2015 club All-Ireland champions Ballyhale when the semi-final draw was made last night (Monday).

The second semi-final sees Kieran Joyce's Rower-Inistioge take on Martin Comerford's O'Loughlin Gaels, the last city side left in the title race.

Both games are expected to be played in Nowlan Park this Sunday.
