John the Baptist Community School bidding for Munster success

John The Baptist Community School from Hospital will take on Rice College Ennis in the Munster Post Primary Schools Senior B Hurling Final in the Gaelic Grounds (12noon).The game will preceed the Harty Cup final (2.00) between St Colmans of Fermoy and Our Ladys of Templemore.

Hospital are hoping that lifting the Corn Thomais MhicChoilm will be the ideal launchpad for a tilt at Harty Cup hurling next year.
It has been a stellar year in terms of GAA for the Hospital school with – Munster Senior A and Junior A Ladies football titles already in the trophy cabinet.

Wins over Glanmire, Mitchelstown and CBS Dungarvan in the semi final have moved Hospital into Saturday’s decider, which was won last year by Abbey CBS of Tipperary Town.

Hospital are managed by teachers; Michael Martin, James Devereux and David Balfry and the final is to be streamed live online on www.munstergaapps.ie – the Harty Cup Final will also be streamed live online.

We chatted with players and management about their hopes for tomorrow’s final.
