2013 Féile Peil na nÓg Doire - All-Ireland Under 14 Championships

What way are the divisions drawn?

Division 1 had teams from Tyrone, Dublin, Laois, Galway, Kildare, Kerry, Cork, New York and then 8 teams from host County Derry.

Is that the way it works every year, or is there any sort of relegation / promotion?  (For instance Burren from Down won Div 2, does that mean next years Down champs will be in Div 1?)

Or are the Divisions just randomly drawn?

They must be . . . how else can anyone explain Glen being 2nd in Derry's Division 2 league and being able to enter Division 5 of the All Ireland Feile (the closest any team got to them was 7 points).

I'm told the Derry teams placings were based on last year's Ulster Feile and this year's Derry Feile results, where Glen didn't win a match. Glen probably should've been in Div3/4, but not the club's doing.

We lost to a team from Wicklow. Only good point is we have 13 out of 24 back next year.

Oh dear, I hear those naughty men from glen didn't object to being placed in division 5 even when they saw other wee derry teams in higher divisions. Still, as my late husband said to me 'what do you expect from a cow but a kick?'
