"Every player dreams of playing in Croke Park on St. Patrick's Day" according to Ballyboden-St. Enda's captain Darragh Nelson.

The Dublin club are set to play Mayo's Castlebar Mitchels next Thursday looking to win their first ever All-Ireland club title. They have only ever won the Dublin Championship three times.

Championship sponsors AIB have released a video ahead of Thursday's game showing what it means to reach the final for the south-Dublin side. Trailing by three points in the last five minutes in their semi-final against Clonmel Commercials, they brought the game to extra time and won by five points in the end.

The club is one of the most successful in the capital with eight club championship wins in both football and hurling since 2007. None of those sides have ever reached an All-Ireland club final.

On Thursday afternoon, players such as Michael Darragh MacAuley who have already won All-Ireland titles with their county will be looking to do it closer to home with their club.
