The draw for the 2019/20 Hula Hoops National Cup was
made at the National Basketball Arena in Tallaght today.
There are some interesting clashes in store, as a
big Kerry derby looms in the Men’s Pat Duffy National Cup as Keane’s SuperValu
Killorglin host Garvey’s Tralee Warriors in what is set to be one of the big
games of the opening round. All eyes will also be in Dublin as Griffith College
Templeogue host UCD Marian in another big derby showdown, while Cup holders,
Pyrobel Killester, have a bye into the next round.
In the Women’s Paudie O’Connor Cup meanwhile, the
two preliminary round games have thrown up two cracking battles as reigning
champions Liffey Celtics travel to Cork to face old rivals Ambassador UCC
Glanmire, while DCU Mercy host newly-promoted and reigning Women’s Division One
Cup champions, Maree.
The Men’s Presidents Cup meanwhile sees holders
Tradehouse Central Ballincollig on the road to Scotts Lakers St Paul’s
Killarney in one of the most anticipated games of the opening round, while one
of the big games of the Women’s Division One Cup sees a big Dublin derby
showdown between Swords Thunder and Trinity Meteors.
