They are on the Ulster Council Website. Do Antrim teams treat this as anything other than a pre-season now?

Think most antrim teams use it in preparation for the leagues.  The timing this year is proof of it.  Good idea

No Cushendall?

[antrimgeal1989]

from a quick scan..no cushendall. cloughmills. rasharkin. creggan. surely every team should be using this as pre season. competative matches in febuary, yes please. antrim leagues wont start to probably april so its a long pre season for a lot of teams. any prediction on whos going to win leagues and championship this year??

[btdtgtt]

Championship - dall to pip shamrocks
Div1 - shamrocks (prob ulster league also)
Div2 - oisins (maybe Rossa)
Div3 - clooney Gaels

Just think the hurt if the last few years will finally drive cushendall to win with greater desire than a loughuile team on the back of continuous winning (only natural) even more so if it lasts until St Patricks day!

Have to agree, even if they tell top 15 to stay away, give others a chance to impress, better than months of training and then little game time.  Unless management have a set panel of say 20 and they don't feel rest are up to it.

Shamrocks have as much desire to win this year as ever. There's the fact of going on top of the pile by ourselves to strive for this year.

I don't doubt that but every team will have their own motivation. I am not suggesting loughuile won't be motivated at all - just that the pain of losing is sometimes the greatest incentive. AnywY you boys have bigger fish to fry before worrying about it!

Speaking of which, I hear that the practice games went well this week, with another couple to come down south this weekend .
