As chainnan of the Mid TIpperary Board it gives me great pleasure to welcome you aU to the showpiece of the year in the division­ the senior hurling final. This year makes it very special as we welcome back Boherlahan-Dualla in quest of their first senior Mid crown since 1953 against the holders and worthy opponents in Loughmore-Castleiney. The 1995 championship has provided excellent fare so far with very thrilling games. the final should be no exception. We all look fOIward to a very competitive game. I wish both teams every success to-night and also in their quest for county honours later on. We hope the curtain raiser between 1.K. Brackens and Holycross-Ballycahill will provide a keen opening to the programme.

BOHERLAHAN-DUALLA In 1912 the Boherlahan club was born out of the ashes of three k>cal cubs who in earlier years had won county hurling final honours :· Tubberaclora • 1895,1896,1889: Suir View 1897 and Baltytarsna 1901 . The earty years of the new Bohertahan club otten referred to as the Leahy era, were outstandingly successful and between 1912 and 1928 they won no ~ss than nine county finals and two All Irelands 1916 and 1925. After a slack period in the thirties Bohertahan were back once again in 1941 under the captaincy of the late Phitly O'Dwyer to capture Mid honours from Thur1es Sarsf;ekls and the county title from Eire Og, Anacarty. Defeated in the Mid finals of 1948 by Holycross and 1949 by Borrisoleigh they again took the Mid title in 1953 against Thur1es Sarsfields but lost the county final to Borrisoleigh. The 1953 divisional success of forty two years ago was in fact Bohertahan's last Mkj final appearance until the present year. Having little success throughout the remainder of the fifties a parish senior team from Bohef1ahan. Suir View and Dualla contested the 1959 and 1960 senior championships but in 1961 the ck.lb regraded junior under the name Bohertahan-Oualla. The next two decades brooght little success except for a minor oounty final in 1970 but eventually we won the Intermediate county final in 1981 and returned once more to senior status. Cahill cup successes followed in 1983 and 1993 and this year sees us back in the Mid final once more having defeated Holycross-BaUycahill, Gortnahoe and Thurles sarsHelds on the way. Over recent weeks the team has been training assktuously under Aengus Ryan, CastleL who incidentally was also in charge for the 1983 Cahill Cup victory; Martin O'Dwyer, a charismatic manager, Ciaran Maher and Willie Jo O'Dwyer. Though Loughmore will no doubt line up as firm favourites we have high hopes that this young Bohertahan team, a number of whom have graduated from the successful 1993 minor team will eventuaUy succeed in getting our parish back to the pos~ion ~ once proudly held as cIlaJ1l>ions of Tipperary and wouktn'l it be appropriate if success should coincide with the centenary celebrations rurrently under way in the club corrvnemorating Tubberadora's rise to fame a hundred years ago in 1895.
