On Saturday, Ballina Stephenites aim to continue their incredible season when they take on Galway champions Corofin at Pearse Stadium in the Connacht senior football championship semi-final.

Awaiting the winners will be one of Naas or St Loman’s of Westmeath, who meet at TEG Cusack Park.
In Hurling, the Munster semi-finals will see Na Piarsaigh of Limerick take on Waterford’s Ballygunner, in what was one of the games of the year last season.
