After surrendering their championship crown to Newtownshandrum in 2009, Sarsfield's reached a third successive championship decider on 10 October 2010.Glen Rovers, who were playing in their first championship decider in nineteen years, provided the opposition. Michael Cussen set up Kieran Murphy for a key point late in the game. A narrow 1-17 to 0-18 victory gave O'Sullivan a second championship medal.
