Following on from their Intermediate success in 2024 and a successful Division 1 league campaign, All Saints entered the 2025 Ulster Senior League as part of their preparations for the upcoming season.

With the new rule enhancements in place for the forthcoming club season, a large number of teams entered the pre-season competition, split into 8 groups of 4 from across Ulster. 

Placed in Group G along with St Malachy’s Castledawson, Sean Mac Cumhail, Ballybofey and Four Masters of Donegal Town, they have enjoyed a fruitful journey to date.

They commenced the campaign with a trip to St Malachy’s Castledawson resulting in a 2 point win in a high scoring game, 5.14 to 4.15.

They followed this up with a visit from Donegal’s, Sean Mac Cumhaill’s of Ballybofey and enjoyed another 2 point win at Quinn Park on a scoreline of 3.9 to 1.13.

Their last group game resulted in a trip to the Four Masters club in Donegal town with both teams vying for the top position and a Quarter final spot. 

In a hard fought game, All Saints came out 8 point winners on a scoreline of 2.13 to 0.11 to finish top of Group G.

They were then drawn to face O Donovan Rossa, Ardboe in a Quarter Final tie. Ardboe were undefeated in a group comprising Kilrea, Granemore and Ballinderry.

All Saints travelled to the Lough Shore men and won the game by a 3 point margin on a scoreline of 3.16 to 3.13 to qualify for a semi-final meeting with Gweedore.

The Ballymena men are on the road again this Sunday to face a side who won Ulster back in 2019 and will be strongly fancied to advance to the final but

Liam Bradley and his management team will be happy with their pre-season preparations before the real business begins over the next couple of weeks.
