Laois, Offaly And Westmeath Learn Leinster Championship Routes

Friday, 25 February 2022 10:11

Laois and Offaly will face off in a local derby.

The three local sides discovered their Leinster championship fate earlier this week. 

Westmeath will face Meath and Dublin in the three team senior competition, initially in a round robin format with the top two taking to the field for the final in Croke Park. 

The Lake County given their current league form and transitional phase will be underdogs against the senior All-Ireland champions and last year's beaten finalists however it'll be another fantastic chance for Michael Finneran to see where his side is at in the heat of championship football. 

Fixtures: 

  • 30th April - Westmeath v Dublin
