The North West Warriors have been handed a boost with the return of Ireland international Craig Young to the squad for this weekend's T20 Festival.

Young hasn't played this year following surgery on his right hand. He replaces Bonds Glen all-rounder Raymond Curry in the only change to the squad.

William Porterfield is once again absent due to his coaching commitments with Gloucestershire.

Action at Bready gets underway on Friday with the Warriors in action in the first match against Northern Knights at 11 o'clock.
