Chadwicks Wexford Park to host Walsh Cup Final

Chadwicks Wexford Park has been confirmed as the new venue for the Walsh Cup Hurling Final between Wexford and Galway.

By mutual agreement of both counties, the opening round of the National Hurling League Fixture between the pair will now double up as the Walsh Cup Senior Hurling Final.

The tie was originally scheduled to take place at Croke Park but in a move to avoid fixture congestion, the agreement was structured.

This game is now scheduled for Saturday 4th February at 5.00 pm.
