The Semi-Finalists are now confirmed for the 2017 GAA Handball MyClubShop.ie All-Ireland 60x30 Singles Championship, after yesterdays Mens & Ladies QF's.
Eoin Kennedy received a walkover from Limerick's Paudi Quish and will now face Meath's Brian Carroll who came from behind to defeat Mayo's Joe McCann 21-15 in the third game. Reigning champion Robbie McCarthy looked awesome as he comfortably took out Tipperary's Ger Coonan in two straight games, and he will now face first time semi-finalist Gary McConnell. That was after the Meath man claimed the most eye catching win of the weekend, taking down Wexford's Gavin Buggy 21-9, 21-14.
In the Ladies, Aishling O'Keeffe set up an all Cork SF with her long time Doubles partner Catriona Casey after a dominant 21-3 third game win over Laois' Niamh Dunne. Reigning Champion Martina McMahon was in ruthless form as she defeated Westmeath's Aoife McCarthy 21-8, 2-0, and will now face Kilkenny's Ciara Mahon who cemented herself as the national ranked #3 with a comfortable two game win over Pauline Gallagher (Mayo).
Fixture details for Saturday's SF's will be released on Tuesday morning.
