Laois clash with Kildare to top off 'Super Saturday'

The Antrim v Carlow clash will get another 'Super Saturday' of All-Ireland SFC qualifiers underway on July 9.

The throw-in times, dates and venues for the second round matches have been announced by the GAA's Central Competitions Control Committee.

Antrim will entertain the Barrowsiders at Casement Park, with a 2pm throw-in, while Down's encounter with Leitrim has a 3pm start in Newry.

Top of the bill for the evening schedule is the meeting of Leinster rivals Laois and Kildare at O'Moore Park (throw-in 7pm).

There will be a fascinating tactical battle on the sideline in Portlaoise as Laois manager Justin McNulty and Kildare boss Kieran McGeeney, who are good friends and former Armagh team-mates, go head-to-head.

London will lock horns with Waterford at Ruislip (throw-in 6.30pm) in the third Championship outing of the summer for the Exiles.

Navan's Páirc Tailteann will play host to the Meath v Galway match, while Mick O'Dwyer's Wicklow side will travel to the Morgan Athletic Grounds to take on beaten Ulster semi-finalists Armagh.

The last of the 7pm games is the pairing of Longford, who dismissed Cavan in impressive fashion, and Tyrone at Pearse Park.

Meanwhile, the date and throw-in time for the Limerick v Offaly game has yet to be confirmed. It will be held at the Gaelic Grounds on either July 9 or 10.
