It's been quite a year for the Ballyarnett club who exceeded all expectations by winning its first ever county championship before cruising to an Ulster Final win over Tyrone champions Moortown at Owenbeg.

The journey didn't stop there, however, as victory over Kerry's highly fancied Na Gaeil booked their place in today's All Ireland showdown at GAA headquarters.
