Hurlers to bring McCarthy cup to Limerick Greyhound Stadium

The 2018 All Ireland champions will be in attendance on Friday September 21st at the Club Limerick’s Community that will be held at the Limerick Greyhound Stadium. The panel will be accompanied by the Liam MacCarthy cup as it continues its first tour around the county in nearly half a century.

All funds raised from the event will go towards the support of Limerick’s hurling and football teams for the 2018/19 campaign. An action-packed 12 race card is promised as doors open from 6:30pm, including six finals on the night.

Racing Manager with Limerick Greyhound Stadium, Liam Kennedy, commented:

“There are a very limited amount of tickets still available so I would encourage people to book now if they intend on going. It should be a good night on what will be a busy weekend here in Limerick. It’s a great opportunity for hurling supporters to get behind both sets of teams – all in Limerick GAA and the team here at the track. We welcome all from Club Limerick, particularly the Limerick senior hurling panel and staff and of course, we can’t wait for Liam MacCarthy to visit Greenpark.”

“Due to huge demand, this is a ticket-only event with no cash accepted on the turnstiles on the night,”
