With only one game week left to play in the Mayo LGFA Senior Club Championship, there are mant sides heading into battle with their season on the line.

There are few certainties with Game week Three looming large, but some things are certain.

Four teams will secure end the day only two hours of ball away from the ultimate glory, while two sets of sisters will find themselves sailing close to the wind and fighting off the drop.

Here, we'll run you through what every club needs to seal their fate.

The rulebook states the following:

In the event of two sides finishing level on points, the head-to-head will determine who finishes higher in the table. Then, it goes to the highest number of points (ie, scores over the bar), then score difference (walkovers are not deemed to have an impact on score difference), then the lowest number of scores conceded.

In the event that three or more sides finish level, the score difference will determine who finishes higher in the table. Then, it goes to the highest number of points (ie, scores over the bar), then the highest total score (goals and points). Should two sides be level at that point, then the head-to-head will come into play. If those two sides have drawn, then the team in the higher postition will be the side who have conceded the fewest goals.
