There is a change of date and venue for the Dr McKenna Cup first round clash between Derry and Tyrone.

Originally scheduled for Owenbeg next Sunday afternoon, the local derby has been put back to the following Thursday evening, December 20 with Celtic Park now hosting the game. 

Having reached this year's All-Ireland final, Tyrone are not permitted to resume collective training until December 29 due to the inter-county winter training ban, meaning Mickey Harte is likely to field a new-look team against the Oak Leafers.
