The annual Hurling for Cancer Research event will take place in a new venue for 2023.
Hurling For Cancer Research, traditionally held in Newbridge, has made the move to Netwatch Cullen Park in Carlow for 2023 due to the planned refurbishment of St Conleth’s Park.
The unique hurling match will take place on Monday August 21 at 6pm and promises to be the biggest game yet. The All Ireland Hurling Final is set for July 23rd meaning leading players will be available for the event. The event, organised annually by leading trainer Jim Bolger and former champion jockey Davy Russell, allows sports fans to rub shoulders with household names from the world of horse racing, GAA, soccer and boxing along with a host of celebrities.
Hurling for Cancer Research has raised over €1.3 million to date providing hope for cancer patients by funding life changing research, which improves outcomes for cancer patients and increases the amount cancer trials taking place in Ireland.
