Why is there a difference between clubs at Junior level playing clubs from different counties to Senior and Intermd.?

[clarshack]

How would Ballyhegan compare to last year's champions Derrynoose?

Senior champions is the best club in the county. The intermediate and junior champions are rather contrived subdivisions which are not the same in every county.

But senior and intermediate is drawn the same, just junior it same.

Also GAA shouldn't be an elitist organisation, bringing junior and intermediate is their best idea for a while

How would Ballyhegan compare to last year's champions Derrynoose?

They'd be a fair bit off. They've a couple of lads who'd be fit to play on any team in the county but they were hammered by a seconds team in county final. Derrynoose be a fair bit stronger

Would expect Fintona to win then by at least what Clann Eireann seconds won by.

I'd expect a cricket score. Junior football in Armagh isn't strong at all.

Yeah the only time we'd ever have a decent team at junior is when theres a team just dropped down or else a team that probably should have been promoted in previous years but were u lucky for one reason or another. Derrynoose i think were unlucky last year if I remember as were Belleek a few years back. Probably the strongest team in a while with 3 county lads Forkhill missed out on Ulster due to covid. Ironically one of our stronger intermediate team Clan Na Gael missed out the same year.

Down probably have the most honest Championship structure in Ulster, maybe Ireland. Our Junior teams are proper Junior teams. There are very few if any anomalies. That's why our record is so poor at Ulster JFC level.

How so? If there are 47 clubs in Tyrone and we've split them 16 Senior, 16 intermediate and 15 junior can it be done any fairer than that?

Same with Armagh. 16 senior, 16 intermediate and 14 junior (was 16 but a couple of teams folded)

same in Armagh

[clarshack]

Think Monaghan is split evenly 3 ways as well.

Ours is the same our clubs are just shite tbh. Could really do with reducing each championship to 12 and bringing in a junior b championship because most of our mid to low end senior teams would be intermediate standard in most counties and most lower intermediate teams are really junior level.
