Court injury KO’s Aidan O’Shea for Mayo opener

Aidan O’Shea will miss the start of Mayo’s national league campaign because of ankle injury picked up playing basketball.

Mayo manager Stephen Rochford has confirmed that the former All-Star will miss next Saturday’s opening league clash against Monaghan in Castlebar.

But he is hopeful that the 26-year old, who linked up with the EJ’s Sligo All-Stars during the winter, will recover in time for the trip to play Kerry the following week.
