The Cumann na mBunscol football finals return to O’Moore Park this week and 24 games are down for decision.
The finals will be held on Wednesday and Thursday, November 27 to 28, with the action getting underway at 10am each day.
This is a week later than originally advertised due to frost, ice and snow last week.
The O’Moore Park pitch will be split in two for double games with half of the games at the Town End and the other on the Abbeyleix side.
A total of 34 schools from across the county will compete over the two days.
While The Heath will be hoping for a magical week as they will have four chances to win.
Killenard and Gaelscoil Phortlaoise are set to contest three finals each.
Holy Family NS, Presentation Portarlington, Scoil Bhríde Portlaoise, Ballyadams NS, Killeshin, Our Lady’s Meadow Durrow and St Patrick’s Portarlington will appear in two finals each.
We will be in O’Moore Park over the two days where we will have reports from each of the matches.
We will also have pictures and results round up each evening after the games.
Check out the fixtures below:
