Also at 2pm, Sarsfields of Laois make a welcome return to the Leinster Club Championships when their Junior team hosts Kilkenny champions, Muckalee in Mountmellick GAA Grounds. The final preliminary game of the round between home side Éire Óg of Carlow and St Martin’s of Wexford will get underway on Sunday at 5pm.
On Sunday then, attention turns to the Leinster Senior Club Championship quarter finals and the preliminary round of the Intermediate Championship. Reigning Leinster Senior champions, Dunboyne face a trip to the Capital and Dublin champions Kilmacud Crokes. The inspirational Emma Duggan hit 1-09 for Dunboyne in the Meath SFC final at the weekend and along with Shelly Melia and a host of experienced players, they will look forward to a tangle with Crokes who have now won a trio of titles in Dublin this year including their first ever Dublin Senior Club title. The action gets underway in Páirc de Búrca at 1:30pm. In Portlaoise, the home side and Laois champions will take on Kildare champions, Eadestown from 2pm while at 4pm, 8th time Wicklow champions Tinahely will host Westmeath’s Milltown.
