Chadwicks Wexford Park, Saturday, 1.30pm

Ber Horohan, the O’Hanrahans manager, has done a tremendous job helping to lift his club from what seemed almost oblivion to a Junior Football A Championship title in 2026.

Now the club face a tough test when they travel to Wexford to take on the Model County representatives. He is embracing the challenge.

“Isn’t it great to represent your club and your county at that level?” “We will give it a crack,” he promises.

Their opposition, Oylegate-Glenbrien have form. They beat St Mary’s, Rosslare in the county final in Wexford. They also demolished Dublin side, Beann Eadair, from Howth in a first round Leinster game in Enniscorthy.

“We had the opportunity to look at them when they played the Dublin champions. They got a tally of 5-10 that day. They are a goal-scoring team. There are six sets of brothers on it. There are 4-5 Wexford senior intercounty hurlers on it. They are a big physical team and move the ball very quickly,” cautioned Horohan.

The Blues man, owner of the successful Tile N Style company, who has put so much into Carlow GAA both at club and county level remains up-beat about his team’s prospects.

“We will have a couple of sessions during the week and do a little video analysis. Hopefully get a plan together and beat them. No injuries. We are 110% and really looking forward to it.”
