Official All Ireland Minor and U20 Hurling & Football Thread (Part 1)

Did we not get rid of Minor yet?

Thought this was U-17 at this stage or is that next year?

From January 1st 2018, inter-county minor competitions in football and hurling will be played at U-17 rather than U-18 level. These competitions will be run in the summer months and played alongside the All-Ireland Senior Hurling and Football championships (as currently). To accommodate players who are currently playing at U-16 level (2016) and who would be overage for the new minor competitions in 2018 (and would therefore miss out on the opportunity to play “Minor” for their county), Central Council had previously decided to play U-17 Championships in Football and Hurling in 2017, alongside the inter-county Minor championships. At Saturday’s meeting, it was confirmed that these U-17 championships will be organised on a provincial basis as per the existing Minor championships, with the winner in each province going through to the All-Ireland semi-finals (no quarter-finals). All games will be played to a finish on the day i.e. mandatory extra time followed by free taking to ensure a conclusive result.

De-fucking-lighted.
Some savage work on Hurling being done in Kildare. :ronnyroar::clap: :clap:

Think it should a Dublin u17 side and not sure KK enter this? But regardless, some work for them. All based in Nass.

Kilkenny didn’t enter but everyone else in Leinster did. Dublin played mostly a b team but Kildare are excellent at this age group.

Historically, why is there no interest in stick hurling in Kildare?

Historically hurling has only been a success in the better off areas of Ireland mate, not in the knacker counties in the midlands.
