The forthcoming Ulster Club Championship might have a familiar look to it with the majority of last season's county winners still in the hunt to retain their crowns
County final season is fast approaching which means the Ulster Club Championships are also swiftly coming into view with the first games in the provincial series scheduled for the end of October.
Only Donegal champions Glenties have fallen with St Eunan’s and Dungloe set to contest the Donegal decider next weekend. They’ll face neighbours Portglenone, who are making their first Antrim SFC final appearance since 2009, after Casement’s claimed a facile 11-point win over Lámh Dhearg in the last four.Armagh All four of last season’s semi-finalists are back for another crack this season, albeit the last four pairings are difference.
The sides clash in a mouth-watering semi-final at Breffni Park this Sunday while Crosserlough and Cavan Gaels, winners as recently as 2020 and 2017 respectively, meet at the same venue on Saturday.Derry The big guns safety negotiated the group phrase of the Derry SFC with the quarter-finals scheduled for this weekend as the knockout action finally gets under way.
St Eunan’s claimed another one-point win in the last four against 2018 champions Gweedore and will be favourites to claim the title at the expense of a Dungloe side who’ve qualified for their first Donegal SFC final since 1964.Down No football team has dominated their county Championship in Ulster quite like Kilcoo. The Magpies have won 12 of their last 13 renewals and will try and make it 13 from 14 against the only other team to win the Down SFC in that time - Burren.
