In Pictures: Cushendall and Na Piarsaigh book their spots in the final as Templenoe claim glory

The Tommy Moore Cup final will see Na Piarsaigh take on Ruairi Og Cushendall after both sides sealed their tickets to Croke Park on St. Patrick's Day on Saturday. 

Na Piarsaigh were 1-22 to 0-20 winners over Oulart the Ballagh, but it was a close-run affair after the game had to go to extra time. 

It was the Limerick side who had that little bit more left in the tank by that stage, but there was some controversy over the only goal of the game, which was awarded to Na Piarsaigh after it looked as though Ronan Lynch fouled the ball as he was standing over the free.

The other game of the day produced a real shock, as Ruairi Og Cushendall of Antrim were 3-12 to 1-6 victors over Sarsfields of Galway, with Neil McManus getting a tally of 1-7 to lead his side to a comprehensive victory.

In the football, a hat-trick from Stephen O'Sullivan proved too much to overcome for Ardnaree as Templenoe recorded a comprehensive win in the AIB All-Ireland junior club football final by a score of 4-13 to 1-10.

The intermediate champions were also crowned at Croke Park on Saturday as Kerry legend Maurice Fitzgerald watched his St Mary's side secure a 2-10 victory over Hollymout-Carramore of Mayo. Daniel Daly and Anthony Cournane registered the goals that gave Fitz's Cahersiveen side a six point margin of victory.
