Antrim manager Liam Bradley has included nine St. Gall's players in his McKenna Cup squad.

Bradley was forced to plan without his St. Gall's contingent for last season's McKenna Cup campaign and much of the National League as they swept to All-Ireland club glory. But their defeat to Crossmaglen in this year's Ulster club championship means the Milltown men will be able to play a full part in 2011.

The St. Gall's players included are Chris Kerr, Colin Brady, Andy McClean, Anto Healy, Aodhan Gallagher, Terry O'Neill, Kevin and CJ McGourty and Kevin Niblock.

The newcomers to Bradley's squad are Sean O'Neill, Brendan McCann, Mark Sweeney, Richard Johnston and James Laverty. Antrim's first game in the McKenna will be against Armagh in the Athletic Grounds on Sunday, January 9.

Antrim (McKenna Cup squad): C Kerr, C Brady, A McClean, K O'Boyle, T Scullion, J Crozier, M McAleese, J Loughrey, R Johnston, A Healy, M McCann, B McCann, B Herron, A Gallagher, D McCann, T O'Neill, S O'Neill, K McGourty, J Laverty, K Brady, T McCann, M Dougan, E McNeill, CJ McGourty, M Magill, P Cunningham, K Niblock, A Douglas, M Sweeney.
