Following semi-final victories, Dublin and Kilkenny will face off in the Cup Final, while Laois will take on Wexford in the Shield Final. Both finals are scheduled for Thursday, April 9 at UPMC Nowlan Park.

The Shield Final throws in at 4.45pm and the Cup Final now throws in at the earlier time of 6.30pm.

Last week, Kilkenny scored five second half goals as they proved much too classy for Laois in the Under-19 Development League Semi-Final in UPMC Nowlan Park on Good Friday.

Carrickshock’s Adam Franks took the headlines with a well taken hat-trick but their was attacking prowess all over the field with Cian Donnelly and Robbie Doherty also finding the net.

Kilkenny had 13 scorers in total as they really turned on the style in the second period with a strong enough wind at their backs.
