This weekend brings the semi-final stage of the Mayo GAA club championship.
On Saturday night Aidan O’Shea and Lee Keegan do battle. O’Shea’s Breaffy fought off Ballaghaderreen in the quarter-final. Meanwhile, Keegan’s Westport beat intermediate champions The Neale with 9 points to spare.
This will be the second time these teams meet this year. In the group stages, Westport won 2-11 to 16 points. O’Shea and co will be out to rectify that this weekend.
The shock of the quarter-finals was Ballintubber’s defeat to Knockmore. Led by Kevin McLoughlin, Knockmore halted Cillian O’Connor’s quest for three-in-a-row.
This set up a rematch of their own against Ballina Stephenites. Ballina overcame Aghamore comfortably after topping the group stages. There was only a point between these two teams when they met a fortnight ago. Expect it to be just as close again.
Ballina are the only team reprising their semi-final role from last year. This year’s Championship is now all to play for. Breaffy will be backed to finally lift the cup but still have it all to do.
In the relegation final, it’s Claremorris vs Moy Davitts. Moy Davitts are seeking to save themselves for the second time in a row.
Mayo GAA TV will bring all the action live.
Saturday 5th
Breaffy vs Westport (7.15)
Sunday 6th
Claremorris vs Moy Davitts (1.00)
Knockmore vs Ballina Stephenites (3.45)
