Our thanks, as always, to James Sherwin and David O'Riordan for their sponsorship support of Leinster Lightning & Bolts, it is very much appreciated.
Leinster Lightning has dominated the IP competitions since they were reconstituted in 2013 and this year’s success is their 9th time as IP20 Champions in the 13 years of the competition.
