Neutral venue agreed for Connacht final

The Connacht SFC final will be played at a neutral venue — regardless of who provides the opposition to surprise finalists Sligo.

Mayo and Leitrim meet in the second provincial semi-final on Sunday week in Castlebar, with the venue for the decider on Sunday, July 15 to be decided afterwards. If defending champions Mayo win, they will get to choose whether their clash with Sligo will be played in Hyde Park, Roscommon or Pearse Stadium, Galway.

And if Leitrim win, they will also get to pick where their novel finale with the Yeats County would be played.
