Just days after four exciting League finals last weekend, attention quickly turns to the provincial championships, as teams look to take advantage of the new championship structure.
The last 16 of the All-Ireland series is made of four groups, with the four provincial winners, the four finalists, Westmeath, and the next seven best placed league teams making up the All-Ireland series.
This makes for very interesting viewing in the Connacht championship, as London, New York, Leitrim and Sligo are all on one side of the draw.
Leitrim will make the trip to New York on Saturday evening, while Sligo will have a quick turnaround from their final heroics when they take n London in Ruslip.
Saturday's action will be completed by the always competitive Ulster championship, as Armagh host Antrim the preliminary round.
On Sunday, the Connacht quarter-final between Mayo and Roscommon will take centre stage as Kevin McStay faces his former side.
Kevin McStay has named his Championship team for the Connacht GAA Championship quarter final against Roscommon in Hastings Insurance MacHale Park this Sunday.
