THE always-eagerly anticipated Tyrone Club Championships are now just around the corner and a full and extensive list of venus and dates for the opening round of fixtures was unveiled earlier this week.
The senior championship throws in on Thursday, September 11 at O’Neill Park, Dungannon, with the tantalising meeting of reigning champions Errigal Ciaran and challengers Ardboe.
At Intermediate level, Eglish and Coalisland have been given the honour of getting the competition underway exactly a week earlier on the eve of Thursday, September 4, also at Dungannon, while the Junior Championship commences later this month with a preliminary round double bill of Derrytresk v Donaghmore and Tattyreagh v Brackaville. In a break from tradition, a fresh draw will be made after every round.
