Limerick Minor hurlers lose appeal, but aren't giving up

Limerick Minor Hurlers have lost their appeal against the result of their Electric Ireland All-Ireland MHC semi-final defeat to Galway after extra-time at Croke Park.

The GAA's Central Competitions Control Committee (CCCC) met this evening in Thurles to decide on the Shannonsiders appeal, after being denied a point, owing to a problem with the score-technology system Hawkeye.

However, the CCCC said that they were unable to rule on the score, pointing out that Rule 7.10 (n) states, “No objection or counter-objection maybe submitted on grounds that a referee had incorrectly allowed or failed to allow a score.”

Following a meeting this evening, Limerick are set to now take their case to the GAA's Central Appeals Committee (CAC).

The final is due to be played on September 8 at Croke Park, with Waterford contesting their first decider since 1992, against a Galway team hoping for their third title in five years.
