Reigning All-Ireland intermediate ladies’ football champions, Roscommon, will face the team they defeated in Croke Park in the opening round of the Lidl LGFA Division Three League next January.

Under new manager Lloyd Kelly, who was ratified as the team’s new manager at a meeting of Roscommon LGFA on Monday evening, Roscommon will open their campaign at home to Fermanagh on Sunday, January 24th.

Overall, Roscommon have four home games — the game against Fermanagh will be followed by home ties against Down, Westmeath and Clare.

They will also face trips to Wexford, Carlow and Leitrim in a campaign where they will be one of the favourites for promotion.

Roscommon finished mid-table in Division Three last season before turning their year around spectacularly, culminating in a memorable 2-12 to 0-6 victory against Fermanagh in August’s All-Ireland final.
