Tyrone Club Football and Hurling

[DownFanatic]

Down brought in a Division 4 split last year and it works brilliantly. 12 teams in the division. Everyone plays each other once. Then the top 6 play each in 4A and bottom 6 play each other in 4B. Points carry over in 4A with top two promoted. No points carryover in 4B with the top 2 in it playing for the 4B title.

Killyman beaten by Donaghmore Thirds which is the only game they won in 2023 (Donaghmore III lost every game last year).

Things must be getting really dicey for them lately, your heart would go out to anyone trying to keep the thing going with the amount of lads moving away at the minute. Must be trojan work.

Definite split in division 3 as many men have mentioned on here, Raymond Monteith mentioned it at county convention a few months ago. You could see there being a 3A and 3B in the near future the way things are going, the gap between the junior contenders and the bottom is widening every year.

This is passed and will come into effect in 2025. Will also encourage more development teams. A positive move for the club scene as Junior football as it stands is dying a death with the big difference top and bottom.

Don't know how it's passed. A change like that would have to be voted by clubs and clubs notified well in advance if mid table clubs want to push on instead of downing tools for championship after a few league defeats.
