UL Vikings and Belfast Trojans to play in Shamrock Bowl XXVI

Shamrock Bowl Semi-Final Results:

Dublin Rebels 38-66 Belfast Trojans

Carrickfergus Knights 3-63 UL Vikings

For the first time in the history of the sport in Ireland, two unbeaten teams will contest the Shamrock Bowl. The UL Vikings and Belfast Trojans, both of whom went 8-0 in their divisions, won their respective semi-final games to reach Shamrock Bowl XXVI. They were not matched up in inter-divisional play during the regular season, so both reach the final with a perfect record.

The UL Vikings dominated the IAFL South Division and carried that domination into their semi-final clash with a comprehensive 63-3 win over the Carrickfergus Knights.

The Belfast Trojans defeated defending Shamrock Bowl Champions, Dublin Rebels in a high scoring semi-final which finished 66-38 in favour of the Trojans.  This is the first time in team history that the Trojans have played in the Shamrock Bowl.

Shamrock Bowl XXVI will be played in Tallaght Stadium, Dublin on Saturday 14th July kick-off 4pm.
