MUNSTER GAA CHIEFS have confirmed the fixture details for this year’s club hurling finals in the province.
Semple Stadium will host the senior decider between Waterford’s Ballygunner and Clare’s Ballyea on Saturday 3 December.
Throw-in is at 3.15pm for a game that will be live on TG4.
Ballygunner are the reigning All-Ireland kingpins, while they also won the Munster title in 2018. They defeated Ballyea in the 2018 provincial semi-final by three points after extra-time, while last year’s game ended in a comprehensive 17-point win for the Waterford champions in Ennis.
Ballyea are contesting their second Munster decider, having won their inaugural final appearance in 2016 against Glen Rovers.
