Stillorgan set for festival of hurling

Hurling enthusiasts from all over the country will flock to Stillorgan on Saturday week - September 1 - for a hurling event that will kick start this year's All-Ireland Hurling finals weekend - the AIB Kilmacud Crokes All-Ireland Hurling Sevens.

The Hurling Sevens tournament has been running since 1973 and is certainly a key event in the GAA calendar.
