Mayo will be in action again in New York next April.
MAYO football supporters can start planning for next summer’s trip to New York for the Connacht GAA Senior Football Championship.
The Mayo News understands that the long-awaited clash with the Exiles will take place on the weekend of April 6/7 at Gaelic Park in the Bronx.
The draw for the 2024 GAA All-Ireland Senior Championships is being held on Saturday week next (October 21) on RTE Radio 1.
It’s expected that a date and time for Mayo’s first game against New York since 2019 will be confirmed subsequently, but the first weekend in April has been pencilled in at this stage.
Speaking to The Mayo News back in August, Connacht GAA CEO John Prenty confirmed that New York would continue to participate in the provincial championship until at least 2026.
“We [the Connacht GAA Council] met and had a really good sensible discussion about it, and the general consensus was that it was only right to finish out the existing rota,” explained Prenty.
“So that will mean Mayo go to New York next summer, Galway will be there in 2025, and Roscommon will travel in 2026 to finish out the rota.
“At that stage then the whole thing will be reviewed.”
Canney joins Mayo management team
FORMER Corofin footballer Joe Canney is replacing Liam McHale in the Mayo senior football management team.
Canney, who managed St Brendan’s of Ballygar in the Galway Intermediate club championship this season (they were knocked out in the quarter-finals last Saturday), is a surprise choice to join Kevin McStay’s backroom team.
Canney has previously worked with Mayo assistant manager Stephen Rochford; he won an All-Ireland club medal with Corofin in 2015 when Rochford was managing the North Galway club.
He went on to become a member of Kevin O’Brien’s management team with his native club as they won back-to-back All-Ireland club titles.
Lining out in the forwardline, Canney won eight Galway SFC titles with Corfofin along with four provincial club championship medals.
Canney will join coach/selectors Donie Buckley and Damien Mulligan in Kevin McStay’s management team.
