AIB All-Ireland Club Intermediate Football Championship Semi-Finals**

Westport (Mayo) v Kenmare (Kerry), Cusack Park, Ennis, 2.15pm

St Colmcilles (Meath) v Pomeroy (Tyrone), Athletic Grounds, 2.15pm

Four teams remain in the hunt for national glory and all will feel that two victories are possible.

Reaching a Croke Park decider is the significant prize on offer this Sunday so two interesting encounters beckon.

Opel GAA/GPA Footballer of the Year Lee Keegan spearheads Westport's challenge, but Kenmare bring a proud tradition and a strong team to Ennis.

Kenmare forwards Stephen O’Brien, Paul O’Connor, and Sean O’Shea were instrumental in the Munster Club Final success against Adare.

Graham Reilly, the free scoring Meath wing forward, is St Colmcilles star turn. Managed by Colm Nally, who will work in Louth's backroom team in 2017, St Colmcilles claimed Leinster glory.

Pomeroy, though, feature Tyrone panelist Hugh Pat McGeary, who is the captain. In 2005 Pomeroy were involved in the All Ireland series at this level with Ciaran McKenna, Denvir Nugent, Martin McKeever, and Ollie McCreesh still involved.

AIB All-Ireland Club Junior Football Championship Semi-Finals

Louisburgh (Mayo) v Glenbeigh-Glencar (Kerry), Cusack Park, Ennis, 12.30pm

Dunedin Connollys (Britain) v Rock (Tyrone), Athletic Grounds, 12.30pm

The Mayo versus Kerry double header at Ennis should attract a decent crowd with the opener set to be a lively affair.

Glenbeigh-Glencar, prompted by the pacy Darran O'Sullivan, earned Munster glory impressively. Louisburgh were deserving victors out west with former Mayo forward Austin O'Malley still an influential and accurate figure in attack.

Dunedin Connollys include another ex Mayo panelist, Sean Malee, and they will be hoping to make an impact against Tyrone outfit, The Rock. The Edinburgh based club overcame Rosenallis in the All Ireland Quarter Final.

Before Christmas Rock claimed a third Ulster Junior Championship following successes in 2007 and 2014.

AIB All-Ireland Club Intermediate Hurling Championship Semi-Finals

Carrickshock (Kilkenny) v Robert Emmetts (Britain), O'Moore Park, 1pm

Ahascragh-Fohenagh (Galway) v Lismore (Waterford), O'Connor Park, 2.15pm

London's Robert Emmetts claimed All Ireland Intermediate glory in 2007, but they face a difficult assignment against Carrickshock.

The Kilkenny club are packed with top quality players such as former inter-county stars John Tennyson, Michael Rice, and Richie Power, while John Power is still in the Cats panel.

Lismore's tussle with Ahascragh-Fohenagh should be good too with the Shanahans and Mannions involved for the respective teams.

Maurice Shanahan and Dan Shanahan continue to deliver for Lismore, while Ahascragh-Fohenagh will be looking to Padraic and Cathal Mannion for inspiration.

How Ahascragh-Feohenagh deal with the Shanahans will be revealing during this eagerly anticipated clash.

AIB All-Ireland Club Junior Hurling Championship Semi-Finals

Calry-St Joseph's (Sligo) v Mayfield (Cork), O'Connor Park, 12.30pm

Mooncoin (Kilkenny) v Lamh Dhearg (Antrim), Trim, 2pm

It proved to be a thrilling 2016 for Mayfield, who won Cork and Munster titles. The 2-18 to 3-10 provincial decider triumph against Ballyduff Lower capped an amazing year.

Nicky Kelly is a sharp forward, while David O'Neill carries a threat in attack also.

Calry-St Joseph's, the dominant team in Sligo for the past half dozen years, were delighted to secure a victory outside Connacht when defeating Fullen Gaels in December.

Keith Raymond, who has hurled for Connacht at inter-provincial level, is their main man.

Eamonn Hennebry rifled the only goal of the Leinster Final when Mooncoin outfoxed a highly rated Ratoath.

Lamh Dhearg, are a wonderfully committed club, who will be hoping to cause a surprise with Domhnaill Nugent renowned as an effective free taker up front.
