AIB today launched a video which captures the inspirational story of Wexford club Oulart-the-Ballagh becoming AIB GAA Leinster Senior Hurling Champions for the first time.

On Sunday the 29th of November, Oulart-the-Ballagh players travelled to Carlow to compete in their 7th AIB GAA Leinster final. Having lost all six previous finals not many gave them a chance, with the team labelled 'Oulart the Bottlers'. They came into the game as massive underdogs against a highly fancied Cuala side, but being written off only strengthened their resolve to finally get their hands on that trophy.

They were backed all the way by their passionate hurling community of Oulart and the Ballagh. The camogie team, as AIB GAA Leinster Camogie champions were willing the Senior Hurling team to emulate their success. Their support was made all the more poignant with nine different families represented across both hurling and camogie teams.

This is their story -  #TheToughest Win
