IN the moments after their greatest success, Brendan Ring summed up the resilience that made Youghal the Munster intermediate champions of 2013.

“You know we didn’t have the best of starts to the year,” he said. “We were beaten in the first round of the championship but we rallied. You can see that here today how we got here.”
