The Limerick Senior Hurling club championship starts this weekend with 12 of the county’s best teams battling for the title
Soon there will be 12 teams from the All-Ireland champions club tournament going for the John Daly Cup.
The most successful team in the history of the competition is Patrickswell GAA with 20 county championships. Now the new all-star team and current titleholders are Na Pairsaigh going for the seventh title this year.
Kilmallock seems to be one of the bookies’ outside shouts for the competition this year, hoping to go one better than some of their previous seasons.
The draw is made up of four groups with three teams. The top teams will qualify for the county quarterfinals while second place will go into the knockout round. Bottom place in each group will go into a relegation playoff for next season.
Group 1: Na Pairsaigh, Kilmallock, Ballybrown,
Group 2: Patrickswell, Doon, Ahane
Group 3: South Liberties, Blackrock, GarrySpillane
Group 4: Adare, Monaleen, Kildimo Pallaskenry
