Big evening of club and intercounty action in the offing

Ballyea and St Thomas face off at Semple Stadium, Thurles, from 5.00pm.

The Allianz National Football League begins this evening with a meeting of two Division 1 sides.

2016 All-Ireland runners-up Mayo play host to Monaghan at McHale Park in Castlebar, with both sides hoping for a good start to their spring campaign.

Elsewhere this evening in Division 2 Down take on Fermanagh, and in Division 3 – Tipperary's section – it's Laois against Louth.

All those games throw-in at 7.00pm.
