Dates and venues revealed for championships

The Meath Competitions Control Committee (CCC) have released the fixture schedule for the first three rounds of the football and hurling championships and from Friday 31st July it is going to be full steam ahead for all the clubs.

The SFC will get the belated championship season up and running with defending champions taking centre stage when they take on IFC champions and senior newcomers Nobber in the first game at Pairc Tailteann on Friday 31st July (7.30pm).

There are two other SFC games down for decision on the opening night with neighbours Summerhill and Moynalvey making the short trip to Trim for a 7.30pm start while in Skryne at the same time Donaghmore/Ashbourne and Navan O'Mahonys will open their campaigns.

The IFC and JFC will also start on Friday 31st July, while the new look Premier FC will be unveiled for the first time with a plethora of games at 12pm on Sunday 2nd August.

The hurling championships will start a week later on Friday 7th August with a repeat of last year's Jubilee Cup decider between champions Kildalkey and Kiltale set to get the action going in Pairc Tailteann at 7.30pm.
