The last few weeks has seen the start of the 2016 Leprechaun Cup, a hardball competition for Primary schools throughout the province. The competition continues to act as the flagship for the Leinster development programme offering hardball inter-schools fixtures for boys and girls at primary school level. In the coming weeks, similar age-group competitions will commence – Super league, 4th class cup & the Leprechaun Cup ‘Cailíní’. Cricket Leinster are most thankful to Antalis who will again sponsor this year’s competitions. Results to date along with next weeks confirmed fixtures are as follows:
