If their first meeting this year was a taster of what's to come, Cork basketball fans are in for a real treat as Energywise Ireland Neptune host UCC Demons in the InsureMyHouse.ie National Cup opener this Saturday.

A sold-out Neptune Stadium will be the venue for what promises to be another pulsating edition of the old Cork rivalry.
