Westmeath travel to Longford for their first game of the year.
Pre-season competitions are worthwhile if they unearth even just one player that can contribute to the county panel over the year.
That's what Midlands 103 analyst Gerry Buckley is saying ahead of Westmeath's opening O'Byrne Cup contest tomorrow.
Dessie Dolan's charges take on Longford at Glennon Brothers Pearse Park to win the right to play the winners of the Louth and Meath in the competition's semi finals.
While a number of those who feature may not come back, Buckley tells David Hollywood finding one player makes it a worthy exercise:
The action gets underway in Longford at 1.30pm.
