Sliotars over the fence prompt objections to Mountrath GAA plans

Damien Carter has announced his first starting 15 for this weekend's Leinster Minor Hurling Championship game against Kilkenny in Laois Hire O'Moore Park.

This is Carter's first year as manager of the Laois Minor squad, however he was apart of the setup for the last two years before making the leap to the manager's position in October 2022.

Rick Bannon (Camross)

Oran Gorman (Rosenallis)

Lorcan Dunne (Rathdowney-Errill)

Conor Mortimer (Camross)
