Louth Hurlers have been drawn in Group One of next year's Nicky Rackard Cup.

The Wee County will face Lory Meagher Cup winners Warwickshire, Longford and Monaghan in the competition's group phase.

Philip O'Brien's men will be confident of prevailing from the preliminary stage considering only Monaghan ranked ahead of them in league and championship form in 2017.

The re-structuring of the championships mean only seven teams will compete for the Nicky Rackard honour next year.
