THE Garvey’s SuperValu Senior Hurling Championship games on the double bill in Abbeydorney on Sunday have seen their throw-in times changed.

As a result of the Republic of Ireland v France Euro 2016 clash at 2pm on Sunday, the first game, Kilmoyley v Ballyduff  has been brought forward to 12 noon while the second game between Ballyheigue and St Brendans has been put back to 4.30pm.

Hurling fans will now have ample time to see the hurling, watch Ireland beat France 3-0 and then head back to the hurling. Simple…if only!
