New Format for Senior Club Championship 2018
January 12, 2018 By Elma Nix

The new format for the Senior Club Championship was agreed at a specially convened meeting of Kerry GAA last evening:

* There will be 2 groups of 4 teams.

* The groups  will be decided on an open draw basis, no seedings

* Teams will play each other once on a home, away and neutral venue basis

* Top team in each group will contest this year’s final

* Bottom team in each group will play relegation decider later in the year – after senior county championship finalists are known

 In the event of a tie between teams,  the head to head between those teams will be the deciding issue – in the event of that game having been a draw score difference will apply

* Games will commence on 1st April with neutral venue  games being played initially with consecutive games on 8th & 15th with final on 29th April (this only applies if Kerry DO NOT REACH LEAGUE FINAL.  If Kerry reach league decider, games will commence on 8th April with consecutive games on 15th & 22nd and final on first week end in May)

* Double headers will be played where possible.
