Draws take place for intermediate and Junior A football championship quarter-finals and semi-finals
Elphin and Éire Óg have found out their quarter-final opponents in this year's intermediate football championship.
The quarter-final and semi-final draws for this year's intermediate and Junior A football championships have taken place this afternoon.
St. Barry's comfortable 2-8 to 1-3 victory against Strokestown on Friday evening ensured that they made the final eight in the Junior A championship, while, on Sunday afternoon in Ballyforan, Creggs 2-13 to 1-14 victory against St. Brigid's cemented their place in the intermediate draw.
In the intermediate quarter-finals, the meeting of Elphin and Kilmore will be a local derby to whet the appetite, with the winners meeting either last year's beaten finalists Éire Óg or Shannon Gaels in the semi-final.
Strokestown and Fuerty are on a collision course to meet in the last four if they overcome Creggs and Kilbride in their respective semi-finals.
The meeting of Ballinmeen and Kilglass Gaels is the pick of the ties in the Junior A quarter-finals, with the winners set to face either Boyle or St. Barry's.
On the other side of the draw, St. Aidan's will meet last year's beaten finalists Clann na nGael. Western Gaels or Roscommon Gaels will also be in the last four after they were paired together.
The quarter-finals in both competitions are scheduled to take place next weekend (see details below).
Meanwhile, Western Gaels have secured their senior football championship status for another year after Stephen Ryan's injury-time point gave Padraig Cassidy's side a dramatic 1-12 to 1-11 victory against Tulsk at O'Rourke Park, Castlerea.
Tulsk have been relegated to the intermediate football championship, having spent five seasons at senior level.
