Kilkenny Minor Camogie side chase All-Ireland glory on home soil

The Kilkenny Minor Camogie Squad

It's a huge day for the Kilkenny Minor Camogie team as they face Cork in this afternoon's All-Ireland Final in UPMC Nowlan Park.

The Cats will be aiming to win their first title since they defeated today's opponents back in 2021 while the Rebels are looking for a third success in four years after they relinquished their title to Tipperary last year.

LISTEN: David Maher, Grace Walsh and many more...

Cork and Kilkenny were in the same group, along with last year’s winners Tipperary, who held both of this year’s finalists to a draw.
The Rebels prevailed when the teams crossed swords in Dunmore with a direct semi-final berth on the line.
Captain Rachel Murphy is a huge scoring threat for Cork but Mossy O’Sullivan’s charges possess numerous threats, as evidenced when they accounted for Tipp in the semi-final with Tara Goulding and Jess Murphy raising green flags.
Kilkenny defeated Galway and Limerick to set up this mouth-watering encounter, with Shona Ruane, Niamh Davis and Lucy Boyd among those stepping up to the plate for David Maher’s squad.

The A Decider is part of a double-header as it follows the Shield Final between Antrim and Laois with the games throwing in at 2.30pm and 4.30pm respectively.
