Junior A Hurling Championship 2024

Some really smashing match ups. My prediction is for a changing of the guard. Donoughmore and Ballincollig to go through from group A. Grenagh and Kilmichael to go through from group B. With the men in black and white to finally get the job done !!!
How are ballinora not making it out of that group with there recent history in the competition?
 
I think belgooly will be one’s to watch this year, they where the only team to really test tracton last year and that game could’ve went either way the last few minutes. I think you’ll definitely be seeing them in the semi final of the county stage anyway
 
Fancy Ballincollig to win Muskerry this year have been flying in underage hurling the past number of years and I would expect them to have a big impact on the grade this year. A lot will depend on their first team also but with minors not being allowed play at the higher level this should help them also
 
Group 1
1. Ballincollig
2. Donoughmore
3. Scarra
4. Blarney
5. Aghbullogue

Group 2
1. Ballinora
2.Grenagh
3. Kilmichael
4. Dripsey
5. Eire Og

Semi Final
Ballinora to beat Donoughmore
Ballincollig to beat Grenagh

Final
Ballinora Vs Ballincollig
Inniscarra could be dark horses in Group 1 - beat Donoughmore last year and came very close to Ballincollig in the semi final albeit they did have SOD available to them that day.

Maybe ya, just very hard to predict with so many 2nd teams.
 
Who will win the Junior county this year lads?
Ballinora will have it as their main ambition I assume, while not taking anything for granted
With respect, how long has it been ballinoras “main ambition”. i think they might think they are a bit better than what they really are, i remember even back as far as 2019 some of them being fairly confident and acting as if the junior county was just a little stepping stone to their real success,

i reckon myself the winners this year will come from avondhu, Dromina will be dark horses in my opinion, from what i know they have a few coming back from abroad, mixed in with a few young cork minors/20s and an excellent young keeper, i think they might do well

Tbf that is BS as Ballinoras main aim around then was to win a mid cork and maybe a round in the County. Mid Cork was weak with Cloghduv gone everyone thought they had a chance at the time and also saw some of the second teams taking it alot more seriously Ballinora we're marginaly ahead of the rest in Mid Cork but had battles to win it they wee know where near a county and knew that their best player was a 40 year old from Waterford. They knew they had a good crop of underage talent coming through around now that's why their main ambition now is certainly a county
