Tir na nÓg celebrate their win over Cloney Gaels in the final of the Antrim Intermediate Hurling Championship at Dunsilly Pic by John McIlwaine

As we build up to this weekend’s Intermediate Hurling Championship we take a look back at when both teams won the title in the past. Tir na nÓg won their only Intermediate title back in 2020 but we have to go back a further 20 years since the Oisins tasted success at this level.

Their opponents that day were Carey Faughs and the venue was Armoy
