Wicklow GAA thread

I try to keep up with juvenile and underage football results in Wicklow. I don't get to attend and see many of these matches. This is why I wish the Wicklow County board would play the minor/u17 county final prior to the senior final like it is here in Kildare. My primary reason for wanting this is it would allow people like me who live outside the county to see the best clubs at that grade play against one another each year. I don't know understand why the minor finals aren't played prior to the senior final. Anyway, based upon results, it seems that An Tóchar, AGB, Blessington and St. Patricks are strong at underage. This is testament to the work being put in, in those clubs. I'm not saying there isn't work being done in other clubs but those four clubs seem to be leading the way. Reading through the various results from u-19 championship games recently, there are two points

1-Group teams seem to be competing very well. I don't know what the make up of these groups are. If anyone can inform me as to what clubs make up these group teams, I'd be interested to know.

2-Rathnew and Baltinglass are competing u-19 B championship. Despite the fact that they are in the second division of the championship, they are still able to compete at senior level. This proves that underage doesn't automatically transfer into success at senior level.
