It will be interesting to see how newly promoted Slane perform in their first season back in the grade.
Boosted by their fine showing in the league, where they secured promotion before losing the Division 3 final to senior outfit Rathkenny, St Vincent’s go into the junior championship with high hopes of making a quick return to intermediate ranks.
The Ardcath men spent just one season at intermediate level following their junior championship final success over Dunsany in 2021. And their first season back in junior ranks didn’t go too well either as they were involved in the relegation battle at the end of the season.
