Team news:

KILLYCLOGHER will be quietly confident of going far in this year’s championship after faring so well in the league (barring a blip against Errigal Ciaran when they named a highly experimental line-up). Mark Bradley is their captain this year for the first time, and has been going well, but some of their elder statesmen – the likes of Danny Gorman, Martin Swift and Emmett McFadden – seem to be determined to make the most of the truncated season. Their inter-county players are in a rich vein of form at the moment, possibly because of the club-comes-first nature of this year’s calendar, while Tiarnan and Conall McCann’s younger brother Oisin has been playing well in his first year at senior level. Other young players more than deserving of a mention are Odhran Grimes, John Rafferty and Mark Hayes, and given how well Killyclogher have done at underage level in the last couple of years, it mightn’t be too long before the good times are back at the club
