Davitts visit Claremorris in the O Mara Cup on Saturday, March 5th, at 4.30pm. This tie is usually a lively encounter and is a dress rehearsal for the first round of the Senior League Div 1B clash between the two sides in three weeks time. Although neither side will want to show their full hands in Saturday’s game, neither will want to lose their unbeaten O Mara Cup records either, so an enjoyable match is anticipated. A big support would be a great help to the boys in black and red.

The Groups for the Senior Championship draw are as follows:

Group 1 – Ballintubber, Crossmolina, Westport, Garrymore

Group 2 – Knockmore, Breaffy, Ballinrobe, Kiltane

Group 3 – Castlebar, Charlestown, Aghamore, Ballaghadareen

Group 4 – Shrule, Ballina, Tourmakeady, Claremorris

Group 3 probably wins the dreaded title of “Group of Death”, although the defending champions Ballintubber will be confident of progressing to the quarter-finals. Likewise with last year’s beaten finalists Castlebar, who will fancy their chances in Group 3. Knockmore will be the bookie’s favourite to qualify from Group 2, with Shrule and Ballina likely to be fighting it out for top spot in Group 4.
