Kildare under-20 manager Davy Burke believes that his charges are in a confident mood ahead of the All-Ireland football final against Mayo.

The Lilywhites have impressed during the campaign and their strength in depth has played a huge part in reaching Sunday's final at Croke Park.

When asked about the strength of his squad, Burke told the Leinster Leader that although they have some excellent individuals, it was the squad that got them to the final.

"Absolutely, this is a collective thing; we have shown throughout the campaign that when one lad is maybe a bit off, the next lad will step up; that is the way it has been from the start and that is the way we operate and hopefully it will all come to fruition on Sunday," said Burke.

He added: "I know what we have; what we have come through to be here; if we play to our full potential, nothing less, we will be close."
