West Limerick win Mackey Cup!
The road to West Limerick is the Road to Success. West Limerick won the 2008 Allianz Mackey Cup but spare a thought for 2007 winners, Limerick City, who lost the final by a single point.
The Sarsfield Cup last autumn saw the West defeat the City by a point after extra time and the hurling final was just as tight and exciting.
Cillian Hannon accepted the Mackey Cup from Liam Lenihan, Chairman of Limerick County Board and Principal of Glengurt NS.
