The west hurling championship gets underway in Dundrum today.
Reigning county champions Clonoulty Rossmore will take on recent graduates from the Intermediate grade, Cashel King Cormac’s, at 3pm.
Clonoulty go into the game on a high after winning last years west and county senior hurling titles.
Cashel, meanwhile, reached last years Intermediate county final where they went down to Sarsfields in Holycross.
Clonoulty are under new management this year with county winning manager John Devane stepping aside, and will be missing some established players such as Conor Hammersley.
Despite this, the 2018 Dan Breen winners will go into the game as favourites.
Former senior hurling coach with Kiladangan GAA club, Seamus Gleeson, says its great for the West Tipp championship to have Cashel King Cormac’s back playing senior hurling..
