Antrim have been drawn against Carlow in round one of theTailteann Cup in the draw which took place on Monday afternoon.

The Leinster side, who beat the Saffrons by 2-16 to 1-15 on the opening day of the National Football League Division 4 in Portglenone, went on to win the title when they beat Longford after extra time in the final in Croke Park in late March to claim the county’s first national silverware since 1944. Antrim have to travel to Dr Cullen Park for the game which will be played on the weekend of 9th or 10th of May.

Antrim and Fermanagh are the only Ulster teams in the competition to date, but they could still be joined by Down, who shocked Donegal in the Ulster Championship on Sunday, should they lose out to Armagh in the Ulster semi-final in Clones this weekend.
