The Ruairi Óg's defeated Slaughtneil in last season's Ulster Club final before suffering a one-point loss to O'Loughlin Gaels in the All-Ireland semi-final
Cushendall manager Brian Delargy is hoping to have a full panel to pick from as his side prepare to do battle with familiar foes Slaughtneil at the Box-It Athletic Grounds on Saturday night.
“Hopefully we will be alright - there are a couple of niggles but you are always going to get them at this time of the year when the games come thick and fast,” said Delargy. "It was important to get a challenge game as we have a panel of 33 and not a lot of them see game time coming into the Championship.
The Ruairi Óg’s were taken to extra-time in the Antrim SHC semi-final by St John’s and were 1-16 to 2-12 winners over Dunloy in the county final.
