Carlow team named to face Tipp

Shane Curran has named the Carlow team for the first round of Division 4 in the Allianz National League against Tipperary in Netwatch Cullen Park on Saturday evening, (throw in 6pm).

Mikey Bambrick captains the team and takes his place in a strong looking backline.

Old Leighlin’s Ian Atkinson and Leighlinbridge’s Liam Brennan are the midfield pairing.

Ahead of them, there are hopefully plenty of scores in the attacking quintet. Aaron Amond, Conor Doyle and Paddy McDonnell are in the half forward line, while Conor Crowley, Ross Dunphy and Kevin Murphy are in the full forwards.
