Here come the Glen in black: Colour clash nothing new in county finals for Cork rivals

This year, it was decided by the county board to toss a coin for one team to change, meaning Glen Rovers will wear a changed strip

Gary Norberg of Blackrock and Patrick Horgan of Glen Rovers. Having lost a coin toss, the Glen will wear their black strip in the Cork Premier SHC final.

There will be a throwback of sorts on the colours front as Glen Rovers don their alternative strip for Sunday’s Co-op SuperStores Cork Premier SHC final at Páirc Uí Chaoimh (4pm).

Generally speaking, when a colour-clash arises, both teams must change but, as the Glen’s second kit is all-black and Blackrock’s green back-up set are a very dark shade, it was decided by the county board to toss a coin for one team to change.
