Seven weeks after being crowned back-to-back county champions, Loughrea chase a first appearance in Croke Park in 19 years this Sunday (21st December 2025) when they go up against Derry's Slaughtneil in the AIB All-Ireland senior club hurling semi-final.
Both teams reached this stage 12 months ago but came up just one point short in their respective fixtures, and this game could define both clubs' seasons.
Leading up to the game, Loughrea manager Tommy Kelly has been chatting to Galway Bay FM's Niall Canavan.
Throw-in at Parnell Park on Sunday is 1.30pm and we'll have LIVE coverage here on Galway Bay FM.
