DID YOU KNOW
- Jordan O’Donoghue and Dean Maguire are the only two Young Irelands players to have scored in all eight of their championship encounters.

- Young Irelands will have three sets of brothers playing on Sunday. The O’Donoghues (Jordan & Cian), the Sheekeys (Aidan & Fergal) and the Maguires (Derek & Dean).

- No Louth team has ever won the Leinster JFC. St. Mochta’s (2009) and Hunsterstown Rovers (2013) reached finals, but failed to get over the winning line.

- Adrian O’Donoghue’s men have conceded just one goal between league and championship all year - against St. Kevin’s in round three of the league, a match they won 1-14 to 1-9. Thus, they haven’t let in a major in 17 games and since April 22.
