On Sunday 20th March, Diarmuid O’Connell and Cian Dunning were runners up in a tough U16 doubles final, with Kilkenny boys John Hayes and Cathal Buckley taking the title.

In the adult doubles championship, Hugh Carolan (Conna HC) and Patrick Buckley (Glenville HC) teamed up to represent Cork in the Masters B Munster final on 16th March and came away with a good win against Clare’s Shane Walsh and Alan Cummins.
