HL2A: London 0-01 Mayo 0-01

Only two minutes on the clock and both sides are on the scoreboard.

Both teams line out as named..

The loser of this game will be relegated to 2B next year, while a draw would secure Mayo's status in 2A.

There's been a mixture of sunshine and hailstones in McGovern Park, Ruislip ahead of the HL2A clash between London and Mayo.

There is also a relegation play-off to be decided as Offaly and Carlow meet at O'Connor Park with the loser going down to HL2A next year.

Derry and Wicklow face off in the HL2B final at Inniskeen, while Roscommon and Armagh do battle in the HL3A decider at PAirc Tailteann, Navan. In the HL3B final, Sligo and Longford meet at the Connacht Centre of Excellence.

Westmeath and Kerry go head to head in Cusack Park, Ennis in the HL2A final. Westmeath narrowly defeated the Kingdom in the group phase and this contest should be very tight indeed.

We have silverware on offer as the lower division's finals take place with four deciders on offer.

With no relegation from HL1A, it is all about booking a place in the quarterfinals.

Waterford will be hoping that Walsh Park stands up to the poor weather when Galway visit them.

Wexford and Kilkenny will try again at Wexford Park, while Tipperary travel to Pairc Ui Rinn to face Cork in HL1A.

We should be looking forward to the remaining NHL quarterfinals and see who joins Limerick in the semi-finals, but last week's bad weather put paid to that and instead, we have three rescheduled games in the top two divisions.

Hurling all the way

The small ball code takes centre stage this afternoon as we have nine games down for decision and plenty of silverware on offer.
