The times and venues for this weekend's All-Ireland SH and SF qualifier fixtures have been confirmed by the GAA.
In Round 1 of the All-Ireland SH qualifiers, Waterford will entertain Laois in Walsh Park on Saturday at 7pm, while Antrim and Offaly will meet in Ballycastle at 2pm on Sunday.
The remaining Round 1 fixtures involving Clare and Wexford, and Tipperary against the losers of Saturday's Leinster SHC semi-final replay between Kilkenny and Galway, will take place on Saturday week, July 5, with Sky Sports broadcasting the latter fixture.
With no live TV coverage, the Kilkenny v Galway replay - which will throw in at 7pm - should draw a near capacity crowd to Tullamore.
Three of the four Round 1B All-Ireland SF qualifiers will be played on Saturday. Carlow and Waterford meet in Dr. Cullen Park at 2pm, Tyrone host Louth in Omagh at 2.30pm and neighbours Cavan and Westmeath face off in Kingspan Breffni Park at 3pm.
