The Meath club scene swings in to action this weekend with the opening rounds of the All County A Football Leagues.
2015 winners Dunshaughlin - Runners up St Peter Dunboyne
What better way to start than with the big Navan derby, Keegan Cup holders O'Mahonys versus Simonstown in Paddy O'Brien Park. 2014 Division 1 league winners Dunshaughlin will be hoping to give new manager Anthony Moyles the perfect start when they travel to Stamullen. Donaghmore Ashbourne will be out to avenge last years hoganstand.com SFC quarter final defeat to Na Fianna while beaten finalists Dunboyne entertain Summerhill on Sunday.
The Hill recorded an easy victory over St Peters in last years senior football championship. Division 2 winners Gaeil Colmcille travel to Seneschalstown. Promoted St Colmcilles will taste Division 1 action for the first time when they welcome Wolfe Tones to Pilltown.
