The Junior A hurling championship will be decided this Saturday (14th October) when Skehana/Mountbellew-Moylough meet Loughrea.
Skehana/Mountbellew-Moylough, runners-up in 2022, have seven wins from seven this campaign and beat St. Thomas' 1-20 to 1-15 in the semi-final.
Loughrea lost in the group stages to Castlegar but bounced back to avenge that defeat two weeks ago by 0-18 to 1-14 in the semi-final, after beating Sarsfields in the quarter-final.
Leading up to the game, Skehana/Mountbellew-Moylough manager Damien McHugh has been chatting to Galway Bay FM's Darren Kelly.
