The draw for the 2017 Mayo senior football championship took place this evening and has remarkably thrown up the exact same group as last year!
Reigning champions Castlebar Mitchels - chasing a three-in-a-row of Moclair Cups this season - have been grouped with Ballinrobe, Ballina Stephenites and Crossmolina Deel Rovers, whom they will face in the opening round, for the second year running!
Elsewhere, All-Ireland intermediate finalists Westport have been drawn with last year's runners-up Knockmore.
