BALTIMORE left it late to snatch a dramatic 3-2 away win against Ardfield on Monday to move joint-top of the OBrienWaterServices.com Championship. Already guaranteed promotion along with Lyre Rovers, all that is left to be decided is which of the two teams will go up as champions. Baltimore’s latest win means they join Lyre on 43 points and both have only one game left – both teams must play Ardfield in the coming weeks, with Baltimore hosting Ardfield this Sunday.

Two-time All-Ireland winner Keating plans to spend the summer in America so won’t be involved in Cork’s championship adventure, and McCarthy is still getting used to not having her Courcey Rovers club-mate around the inter-county set-up. Team-mates on the pitch, they’re close friends off it.

WHEN Phil Healy decides to hang up her spikes, her long list of amazing cities and countries to revisit will be the envy of many. The globe-trotting Ballineen woman has raced in some incredible locations. The Bahamas. Paris. Rome. Naples. Tokyo. Istanbul. Taiwan. Amsterdam. Doha. Belgrade. Munich. On Saturday Healy will add Guangzhou in China to the lengthy list as she competes at the World Athletics Relays, though she quips that it will only be in years to come that she can explore these places.
