The Galway SFC final has been rescheduled for Sunday due to weather warnings in place for the weekend. 

The game between Maigh Cuilinn and Salthill-Knocknacarra, which was due to be played on Saturday evening, will now form part of a double-header at Pearse Stadium on Sunday. The Galway intermediate final between Caherlistrane and An Spidéal throws in at 2pm with the senior decider at 4pm. 

Galway GAA said the U19 C football final between Cárna‑Caiseal/Na Piarsaigh and Milltown, and the primary junior 1 decider between Killererin and St Gabriel's, have been postponed and will be refixed for a later date. 

Meanwhile, the Mayo intermediate and junior B football finals, which were scheduled for Saturday, will be played on Sunday and Monday, respectively. The intermediate decider between Ballinrobe and Davitts throws in at 1:45pm on Sunday at MacHale Park, forming a triple-header with the junior A and senior finals. 

In a statement, Mayo GAA said: "Supporters who purchased tickets for Saturday’s games will automatically receive a refund. Those wishing to attend the rescheduled fixtures this weekend will need to purchase new tickets."
