The GAA have announced the times and venues of all of the Allianz National football and hurling league finals.
The Kildare senior football team will face Offaly in the Division 3 decider, with the game taking place in Croke Park this Sunday at 2pm.
Initially penciled in for Saturday evening as part of a double header with the Division 4 final, the game has been moved to Sunday, due to a request by Roscommon. The Rossies are meeting Monaghan in the Division 2 final but looked for the game to be a day earlier as they are travelling to London for their Connacht championship opener the following weekend.
Offaly and Kildare will now be a curtain raiser to the Division 1 final between Kerry and Mayo and will have a 1.45pm throw in.
Brian Flanagan’s side advanced to the final, following an impressive league campaign.
The Kildare senior hurlers will face Down in the Division 2 hurling league final this Saturday, with the game being held in Inniskeen at 1.30pm.
The Monaghan venue has hosted a number of Monaghan’s National football league home games in the past, and the venue hosted the tie between Louth and Cork in last year’s All-Ireland senior football championship.
Saturday 29th of March
