Two games in group one conclude the first round of the SFC | Saturday Football Fixtures

There is action across the top three divisions of the championship as the final round draws to a close in the senior ranks.

The Limerick Football championships continue in the top three tiers with five games to be played on Saturday evening.

It is Group 1 that takes the top billing on Saturday evening with the final pair of games in the group. Newcastle got off the mark against Fr Caseys on Thursday and four teams will be vying to join them atop the table this evening. In Mungret, League champions St Kierans face Oola while over the road it is a meeting of recent Intermediate champions as Claughaun and Kildimo Pallaskenry face off.
