Semple Stadium confirmed as U21 final venue

Semple Stadium will host the 2010 Bord Gáis Energy All-Ireland Under-21 Hurling Championship final between Galway and Tipperary next month.

Due to Tipperary's qualification for the final, there had been doubts over whether or not the Thurles venue would be used for the decider on September 11, but the GAA's Central Competitions Control Committee (CCCC) today ruled that the game will go ahead at the 53,500 capacity ground.
