Countdown to County Senior Hurling Final.

Loughmore Castleiney and Thurles Sarsfields are preparing for their County Senior Hurling Championship showdown this weekend.

Loughmore – who won last year's senior hurling and football titles – are aiming to defend their title but Sars are chasing their own bit of history, as they are also in the Intermediate Hurling Final.

Coach with Thurles Sarsfields Paddy McCormack admits it's a special time for them as they have yet to win an Intermediate hurling title.

The 2014 final will throw-in at 3:30 at Semple Stadium this Sunday and you can hear live coverage here on Tipp FM, with our big-match build-up getting underway from 3 o’clock.
