The 2025 provincial senior football championship draws will take place today at 4pm (live on RTE Radio One).There are a number of teams who already know their fate for 2025 given the rotational nature of some provincial draws.In Connacht, Galway will travel to face New York at Gaelic Park in one quarter-final, while London host Roscommon in another quarter-final next year.There will be a draw for the other quarter-final fixture involving either Mayo, Sligo, or Leitrim.The team that isn’t drawn in the quarter-final will go straight into a semi-final, where there will be an open draw along with the three quarter-final winners.In Leinster, the four semi-finalists from this year – Dublin, Louth, Offaly, and Kildare – are straight through to the quarter-finals in 2025.The remaining seven counties – Wicklow, Westmeath, Laois, Carlow, Longford, Wexford, and Meath will be placed in a bowl to get three first round pairings.One of those seven teams won’t be drawn and they will go into the quarter-final.The Munster finalists for this year, Kerry and Clare, go straight through to the semi-final in 2025.Two quarter-final ties will be determined in a draw featuring Waterford, Cork, Limerick, and Tipperary, and there will be an open draw for the semi-finals between the Kerry, Clare and the two quarter-final winners.In Ulster, Armagh, Antrim, Monaghan, and Cavan have all played in preliminary round fixtures in 2023 and 2024 so they cannot be involved at that stage.Two counties from Tyrone, Derry, Down, Donegal, and Fermanagh will feature in that game.The winner of the preliminary round fixture will join the remaining seven counties in the quarter-final stage.The 2025 provincial senior football championship draws will take place today at 4pm (live on RTE Radio One).There are a number of teams who already know their fate for 2025 given the rotational nature of some provincial draws.In Connacht, Galway will travel to face New York at Gaelic Park in one quarter-final, while London host Roscommon in another quarter-final next year.There will be a draw for the other quarter-final fixture involving either Mayo, Sligo, or Leitrim.The team that isn’t drawn in the quarter-final will go straight into a semi-final, where there will be an open draw along with the three quarter-final winners.In Leinster, the four semi-finalists from this year – Dublin, Louth, Offaly, and Kildare – are straight through to the quarter-finals in 2025.The remaining seven counties – Wicklow, Westmeath, Laois, Carlow, Longford, Wexford, and Meath will be placed in a bowl to get three first round pairings.One of those seven teams won’t be drawn and they will go into the quarter-final.The Munster finalists for this year, Kerry and Clare, go straight through to the semi-final in 2025.Two quarter-final ties will be determined in a draw featuring Waterford, Cork, Limerick, and Tipperary, and there will be an open draw for the semi-finals between the Kerry, Clare and the two quarter-final winners.In Ulster, Armagh, Antrim, Monaghan, and Cavan have all played in preliminary round fixtures in 2023 and 2024 so they cannot be involved at that stage.Two counties from Tyrone, Derry, Down, Donegal, and Fermanagh will feature in that game.The winner of the preliminary round fixture will join the remaining seven counties in the quarter-final stage. …Read More
