It will be an all-Fermoy Munster senior final following impressive semi-final wins for Arthur McDonagh and Gary Daly.

Sensational fourth and fifth shots were instrumental in McDonagh taking control against Aidan Murphy at Ballinagree. Daly reversed the narrative of his battle with James O’Donovan at Whitechurch with three great bowls from Boula lane and a second spurt in the closing stages pushed him clear.
