Hurler of the Year Tony Kelly admits his knowledge of the Cork U21s is limited.

Kelly will spearhead the Banner's bid for a three-in-a-row of Munster U21HC titles on Wednesday night when they face the Rebels in a final which should draw a massive crowd to Cusack Park.

"We didn't play Cork at minor and we didn't play them at U21 level in the last two years. We are into the unknown really," he is quoted in the Clare Champion.

"We knew what Tipperary would bring to the semi-final, as we had played them before but we haven't played this squad.

"The public might be putting pressure on with regard to a third successive Munster title win, but we wouldn't put any extra pressure on ourselves. We are going to play Cork whom we haven't played at minor or U21 level in recent times.

"We are going into another Munster final and we are delighted to be playing in a third final in-a-row, and to have it at home is a big plus." Tweet
