Senior ‘A’ Hurling Championship
Bride Rovers secured a long-awaited Senior A final appearance after overcoming Carrigtwohill in a contest that swung with momentum. Despite a strong Carrigtwohill comeback late on, the Rovers’ earlier goal burst and consistency in attack proved the difference.

Four well-taken goals highlighted their ability to strike at key moments as they overcame a determined Blarney side to book a place in the final.
Premier Intermediate Hurling Championship

Their attacking strength and sharp finishing in the closing stages turned the tide in their favour. Joining them will be Ballinhassig, who never trailed in their semi-final win over Cloyne. Their controlled display and accurate scoring saw them home by four points in Ovens, setting up an exciting decider with Ballincollig.
Intermediate ‘A’ Hurling Championship
Bandon showed grit and determination to grind out a hard-fought win over Sarsfields in a low-scoring encounter dominated by defensive discipline. They will face Aghabullogue, who needed extra time to overcome Aghada in a remarkable ten-goal thriller. Aghabullogue’s energy and finishing power in the added period proved decisive, as they claimed their spot in the county final.
