Conor Meany: Ticket prices make cup semi-final weekend feel like missed opportunity

Unfortunately, ticket prices remain a challenge going into the semi-final weekend. There’s definitely a value to going to see top quality games and €25 for a game is at the outer limit of what is reasonable.

The issue remains that there is a community looking to see multiple games and there are no passes there to make that possible. The strength of Cork as a semi-final destination is that the city has the best basketball community to go and watch neutral games and make the weekend into a big gathering.
