Will it be on TV?
Offaly v Tipperary will be broadcast live on TG4. It will also be available to those outside Ireland via GAA GO.
What is at stake?
At minor level, the All-Ireland Championship is the ultimate goal. Experiencing major showpiece finals can stand the young players in good stead as they look to embark on inter-county careers at senior level.
Not only that, but the opportunity to get your hands on national silverware at any level should be enough motivation for the young men taking to the field at Nowlan Park this Sunday.

How did we get here?
Offaly finished top of the Leinster Minor Hurling Championship Tier 2 table, after registering victories over both Kildare and Laois.
They then went onto beat Antrim in the quarter-final and Dublin in the semi-final, before defeating Laois once more in the Leinster Final.
Their most recent step on their journey to the All-Ireland Final came with a semi-final victory over Clare on June 17th.
With 27,000 capacity UPMC Nowlan Park already close to being fully sold out, it’s fair to say that Sunday’s Electric Ireland All-Ireland Minor Hurling Final between @Offaly_GAA and @TipperaryGAA has captured the imagination, especially in the Faithful County. #GAABelong
