The venues for Roscommon’s opening two FBD League games in January have been confirmed by Connacht GAA.
Mark Dowd will begin his tenure as Roscommon manager with a game against Leitrim in Orchard Park, Elphin, on Sunday, January 4th, at 1 p.m.
The first weekend in January promises to be a bumper one for local GAA supporters, with St. Brigid’s and Strokestown in semi-final action against Ulster opponents — in Strokestown’s case, Derry outfit Glenullin — in their respective All-Ireland club football championships.
A week later, on Sunday, January 11th, Roscommon are set to host Mayo in King and Moffatt Dr. Hyde Park, also at 1 p.m..
A finals weekend has been arranged for the weekend of January 17th/18th where the top two teams will contest the FBD Cup final. The third and fourth placed teams will play in the Shield final, while the fifth and sixth placed teams will contest the Plate decider.
