FERGAL HORGAN, the former Tipperary All Ireland minor winning hurler, has been named as the referee for Ballyea's All Ireland senior hurling club final against Cuala on St Patrick's Day.
The Knockavilla Kickhams clubman has previously refereed an All Ireland minor final (the 2014 decider between Kilkenny and Limerick) and would have been the man with the whistle for last year's NHL semi-final in Thurles when Clare beat Kilkenny.
