The Munster Senior (Closed) Championships 2008

This tournament - jointly sponsored by J.D. Scaffolding and Express Kitchens & Floors - was held in Cork over the weekend of February 8 - 10 at Sunday's Well, Silversprings and Highfield and the top finishers will represent Munster in the Interprovincial Championships later in the season.

Highfield's Conor O'Donoghue took third place with a 3-0 win against Limerick's Dermot MacNamara and Brian Healy was a 3-1 winner against Ken O'Keeffe to take the 5th. place spot.
