Weekend Club Preview And Fixtures

The Ulster Bank All Ireland League continues with a full programme of games across all four divisions.

The three Munster Clubs in Division 1A will be looking to make the most of home advantage count as they go in search of their first wins of the campaign.

Dolphin, who are propping up the table, face a tricky task as they entertain champions Clontarf at Musgrave Park and Cork Constitution are also at home to Dublin opposition as they take on Lansdowne at Temple Hill.

Young Munster go head to head with UCD at Tom Clifford Park.

In Division 1B Garryowen will be looking to make it two wins from two as they travel to Athlone to take on Buccaneers and Shannon will have their work cut out as they welcome leaders Galwegians to Thomond Park.

UL Bohemian are away to Dublin University in a mid-table clash.

In the opening round of games in Division 2A the two Tipperary sides are away to Ulster opposition as Cashel make the long trip to County Down to take on Banbridge and last season’s Division 2B winners Nenagh Ormond are away to Dungannon.

UCC lock horns with Naas at the County Kildare venue and newly promoted Thomond welcome Queen’s University to Liam Fitzgerald Park.

Bruff and Highfield who were both relegated to Division 2B get the show on the road as they lock horns at Kilballyowen Park.

Old Crescent, who were also relegated, entertain City of Armagh at Rosbrien.

Kanturk travel to the Royal County to make their AIL debut against Navan and Sunday’s Well take on Wanderers at the Aviva Stadium, in a game which also marks the Dublin side’s return to the AIL.
