Fáilte an Chathaoirligh Chondae, by Seosamh Ó Seachnasaí: a welcome to Antrim and congratulations on reaching the All-Ireland final after a lapse of over forty years - a boost to the national game in the province of Ulster, and a commendable achievement in the face of the grave difficulties they face in promoting and playing the games. Wexford, after a first-round away victory over Limerick, will be anxious to use home advantage to register another victory; Antrim, after defeat by Kilkenny, will be striving hard for their first. The first home outing under the new Wexford management team of Martin, Dave and Johnny, in their quest to build a team that will bring Wexford hurling back to the national arena. The clár was produced jointly by sponsorship, the county P.R.O. and Coiste na nÓg, with thanks to Seamus Howlin, Pat Murphy, Marjorie McDonald, John Roche, Phil Murphy, George Hatchell and Peter Murphy of People Newspapers, and to photographers Pat Hayes, Pat Murphy, Billy Rackard and Joe Hogan. Inside, a history note on Tipperary playing with 'United Tipp' across their chests in the very first inter-county match, against Dublin on 8 June 1890, and a survey of Ulster hurling - Antrim's provincial record, Down, Derry in 1903, and Cavan's provincial hurling titles of 1969, 1971 and 1975 and their win over Antrim in the 1977 Under-21 final.
