Glanmire are preparing to play in an All-Ireland intermediate club final on Saturday, this after finally getting over the line in the Cork championship, with captain Ellen Twomey feeling the side are "getting better and better".Leitrim's Ballianmore Seán O'Heslin's will be the opposition on Saturday at Croke Park (3pm throw-in) for Glanmire as they aim to cap off a memorable year.After losing three consecutive county finals, Twomey and her team-mates edged Naomh Abán by a point and then had two points to spare over Limerick's Monagea in the Munster decider.
They booked their spot in the Croke Park finale with four points to spare over Meath's Na Fianna a fortnight agoComing out the right side of tight matches is obviously standing to the side, with Twomey telling RTÉ Sport: "Thankfully, everything has gone right for us this year.
We have been in a few very tight games, but those games have stood to us as we went on. We have been focusing in on the areas that we can improve on from those harder games.
The experience we are after gaining from this championship alone is something you can't train.We knew Naomh Abán, going into the Cork championship this year, were going to be a very strong side.
