We're reaching the nitty-gritty of the club championships now with confirmation of all of the provincial final pairings, across all codes and provinces.

Cuala and Ardee St Mary's enjoyed narrow victories on Saturday, teeing up the first senior provincial final of the year.

The Leinster football decider takes place next Saturday in Croke Park, with both teams reaching this stage for the first time ever.

It will be a double header with the hurling final, where Kilcormac Killoughey will take on Na Fianna.

The Offaly side edged a titanic tussle with Castletown-Geoghegan in TEG Cusack Park on Sunday, with late goals from James Gorman and Adam Screeney seeing them through.

Later in the day, Sean Ryan's exceptional goal did the job for Na Fianna, overcoming Wexford's St Martin's with four in hand, 1-16 to 0-15.

In Munster, Dr Crokes will take on Loughmore-Castleiney in the provincial football final after their wins on Sunday. Dr Crokes were far from impressive, surviving a late free to beat Waterford champs Rathgormack by one point, 0-9 to 0-8 in difficult conditions.

Loughmore-Castleiney were exceptional, bouncing back from their loss to Ballygunner in the hurling last week, with goals from Brian McGrath, Ciaran Connolly and Philip O'Connell helping them to a 3-9 to 2-7 win over Éire Óg Inis.

In Ulster, Kilcoo are one step away from a third Ulster title in the last five renewals having scored goals for fun to beat Scotstown in the semi-final on Saturday. Defender Miceal Rooney got forward for two green flags for Karl Lacey's side, who won out by 5-10 to 0-14.

They will face off against Errigal Ciaran in the final after an inspired display from Ruairi Canavan dragged them over the line against the fourteen men of Clann Eireann. The youngest Canavan brother was phenomenal, kicking 0-9, including five from play.

Padraig Pearses are looking to win their second Connacht title in four years, having previously won in 2021, taking on Coolera Strandhill next Sunday.

From an All-Ireland club semi-final perspective, in both codes, the draw will see Ulster champs take on the Munster champs, with the Leinster champs taking on the Connacht champs. In hurling, this equates to the Galway champs Loughrea.
