Claregalway Basketball Club On Verge Of Winning National League

This Sunday at 10am, Claregalway Basketball Club face Fr Matthews from Cork in the Basketball Ireland Women's Development League Final at the National Basketball Arena.

For Claregalway, it's a return to the venue where they werre beaten at the same stage by Liffey Celtics two years ago.

However, this season, they have been very impressive in the league phase winning seven out of seven.

They  also produced big wins over Garveys Tralee Warriors in the Quarter Final and Castleisland in the Semi Final.
