Clonmel chance to close on leaders

IT is back to business in Division 1of the Munster Junior League while the Junior Clubs Challenge Shield final is also down for decision.

Last weekend saw Galbally go top of Division 1 courtesy of a bonus-point win over Thurles in the only match. They won’t be in action this time out as their game at Crosshaven has been postponed until November 27.

There are several clubs right behind them and they will all be bidding to keeping their title bids going. Clonmel have been one of the most impressive sides so far and former UL Bohemian star Ben Martin has been an asset both on the playing field and as a coach. They also have other young talented players with Pierce Byrne and Frankie Quinlan both catching the eye.
