THE second round Munster Senior Cup tie between the holders, Garryowen, and Young Munster, scheduled for Thomond Park on Saturday, has been deferred until April 27th.

Both clubs have players in the Ireland squad who have a session on Sunday and the branch did not want to play second round ties before the first round is completed.

The two first round ties postponed last weekend, UCC and Waterpark and Old Crescent and Highfield, will take place next Saturday at Musgrave Park and Thomond Park respectively.
