The Michael Murphy Sports & Leisure Donegal Club Championship draws have certainly thrown up some interesting encounters in the opening rounds.
For the second year running, defending champions St Eunans will host Kilcar in Letterkenny in round one. The meeting of Glenswilly and neighbours Naomh Conaill along with the derby of Four Masters and St Nauls are other stand out ties on the opening weekend. The big sides all missed each other in round two with last years Intermediate champions Termon and Four Masters, two of the form teams in the league this year, being the pick off the bunch in the second games.
The Intermediate Championship has set up some huge derbies on weekend one with Malin hosting Buncrana and Naomh Mhuire going to NaRossa while All Ireland Junior finalists Naomh Padraig Uisce Chaoin play their first Intermediate game away to Bundoran.
