Would there not be another 3 teams in Antrim to go senior and fill out the other 3groups to 4 teams each?

In all honesty, I think there's probably too many clubs deemed senior as it is in Antrim without diluting the quality further.

Correct. Tough group!

Tbh I think this group format has had its day.

What was the seeding system employed...?
The bye law as passed years since was top for in previous years league div one seeded 1-4....
That doesn't seem the case....wonder when the bye law was changed, which convention......?

I think it should revert to straight knockout- there is always dead rubbers in the group format

Always been the 4 previous year semi finalists for as long as I remember.

Been a while since I was at a draw....bye law must have been amended....

But why no 'live stream' this time.......?

Straight knock out and if they really want to give clubs more than 1 game throw in a back door system, but the groups are terrible and as you say always have dead rubbers at least with straight knock out and a 2nd bite at the cherry there's no proper dead rubbers

Seems to have been done with 2021 championship standings and not 2022
Cargin should be in group with St Galls&Dunloy

[Saff]

Had thought that myself, wonder do they draw the seeded teams out to a number though

The 4 c'ship semi finalists are seeded 1-4 and are drawn out first into groups 1-4
