The 2011 Cadbury Munster Under 21 Football Final between Cork and Kerry will take place on Wednesday April 6th at 7:30pm in Pairc Uí Rinn. This will be the 50th year of the competition.

As a result, the Munster Council has decided it is appropriate to honour the teams which contested the first Munster Final in this grade back in 1962.

On that occasion, Kerry proved successful over their old rivals Cork on a score line of 2-7 to 1-4 in a game played at Kenmare on December 9th 1962. The panels of both teams which lined out in the 1962 Munster Under 21 Football Final will be the guests of honour at next week's final. The respective panels will be introduced to the Pairc Ui Rinn audience at half-time.
