Connacht Junior Plate Final
Corrib v Westport - 1pm
Connacht Junior Cup Final
Ballinasloe v Monivea - 3pm
The Connacht Junior Cup and Plate finals take place at the Sportsground on Sunday afternoon as Monivea and Ballinasloe battle it out for the Cup and Westport and Corrib face off in the Plate decider.
The Cup final is set to be a tight encounter with very little to choose between the teams. Ballinasloe have the opportunity to win the competition for the first time since 1986 while Monivea’s last win came in 2013.
Corrib and Westport begin the day's action in the Connacht Junior Plate final at 1pm.
John was joined by Representatives from All Four Clubs as they looked forward to the Biggest Day in Connacht Junior Rugby.
