THE 2021 Lyons of Limerick sponsored Limerick Premier Intermediate Hurling Championship commences this Friday evening.

There are two groups of four with three group games for each side across the next three weekends.

The top two teams in each group will reach the semi finals with the bottom team in each group in a play-off to determine who drops down to the IHC for 2022.

There are two games this Friday evening.

In Group One, 2020 finalists Mungret St Pauls play a Murroe-Boher side who were relegated down from senior last season.

The other game, in Group Two, is between Bruff and Glenroe who were both beaten semi finalists last year.

On Saturday, in Group One, Knockainey, who are in their second year down from senior, play Cappamore, who are in their third year down from senior.
