GAA news

The quarter-final pairings for the 2025 Senior Football Championship have been confirmed following this afternoon’s round-four group matches.

Defending champions Crosserlough, who drew with Kingscourt, will face Arva, conquerors of Castlerahan. The other three matches are repeat pairings from earlier on in the competition.

Gowna, who fell at the semi-final stage to Ramor United last season and avenged that loss in style this afternoon in Lavey, face a resurgent Cavan Gaels in one of the ties of the round. The Gaels had a good win over Killygarry to secure their place in the knock-out stages.

Ballyhaise, in their second year back in senior ranks, lost to Mullahoran today and now meet Kingscourt Stars. The Stars defeated Gerard O’Kane’s men in round two of the group.

The last quarter-final pits Mullahoran against Ramor United. The sides have drawn in the group stage in the last two years.

The quarter-finals take place next weekend, with a week off prior to the semis.
