The Ulster ladies championship gets underway this evening (Friday 18th) with Monaghan facing the defending champions Armagh at the Athletic grounds at 7:30 in the quarter final. The Farney side will enter the game 6 days after their Division 2 league semi final loss to Kerry, an encounter that went to extra time and a free kick shoot out, while the Orchard county have had a weekend off after their loss in their final group game to Cavan denied them a last 4 spot. While the quarter finals and semi finals will be played over the next 2 weekends, no date has been set for the provincal final as the All Ireland series will then take place.
Monaghan manager Ciaran Murphy has questioned the need to play the game now
Both management teams are expected to make a number of changes to their panels for that encounter which throws in at 7:30 and we will have full live commentary with thanks to Combi Lift. Cavan will get their campaign underway tomorrow afternoon (Saturday 19th) at 5pm when they face the 2019 champions Donegal in Kingspan Breffni.
Coverage of that game will be carried on Saturday sport with thanks to Erne Motor works Dublin Road Cavan.
