Clare’s Junior camogie side are bidding to qualify for the All-Ireland final for the first time since 2008.

This weekend, the side managed by Tim McGrath and Annemarie McGann make the trip to Clane where they go in as underdogs against Armagh.

Saturday’s fixture has a 4:30pm start-time with Kilkishen’s Kate O’Gorman to captain the Banner.

After Kildare were unable to fulfil their group clash with Clare, they received automatic qualification to the knockout stages and topped their group having defeated Roscommon by four points.

Their panel has been boosted by the return of Kilmaley’s Caoimhe Carmody. She had been part of Ger O’Connell’s senior squad but did not see any action and thus is eligible to line out at the junior grade.

Kerry denied Clare a place in the All-Ireland final in 2019 while last year’s competition was cut short midway through due to the pandemic.
