Biritish university hurling championship

[youngfella]

Takes place next saturday in Birmingham. 10 teams in two groups will compete to win. IT is expected to be the strongest line up yet, with big universities like, LJMU, Napier and St Marys are expected to feature heavily, towards the business end to the tourney. Allow Dundee and RGU can never be discounted.

Napier Vs Moores final a repeat of last year final. After a brave effort by moores napier ran out winners, cup goes back to scotland for another year

[Lecale2]

Is that it over for the year or are there other competitions?

[youngfella]

there is the 7 sevens, internationals and the all stars. Left to go. The sevens being a joke, the internations being a piss up.
