The proud Mayo students of Saint Nathy's of Ballaghaderreen and Balla Secondary School have learned where and when they will head into battle in pursuit of All-Ireland Schools' Football glory this weekend.
Both sides are gearing up for tectonic clashes in the 'B' and 'C' deciders, respectively, as they aim to bring pride to their schools, friends, families, clubs, and counties on Saturday.
Standing in their way, though, are stern examinations.
Cnoc Mhuire Secondary School, Granard, will be flying the Longford flag with distinction against Nathy's, while Tyrone's Saint Ciaran's, Ballygawley, will be a serious test of Balla Secondary School's mettle.
First into battle will be Balla Secondary School.
Father Tierney Park in Ballyshannon, the home of Aodh Ruadh, will be the venue for the joust for national glory against Saint Ciaran's. That one is pencilled in for a 2 pm start.
Some 30 minutes later, Nathy's will head out to battle.
They will travel to Ballinamore in Leitrim for a titanic tussle with Cnoc Mhuire. Throw-in in Páirc Sheáin Uí Eislin is at 2.30 pm.
