Team news: Laois reveal U20 football selection

June 24, 2019

Laois' Diarmuid Whelan.

Laois have revealed their team for tomorrow evening's Leinster U20FC opener against Kildare in Newbridge (throw-in 7.30pm).

Billy O'Loughlin's side will be eager to avenge the 1-17 to 4-6 defeat to the eventual All-Ireland winners in the same competition last year - there are seven survivors from that two-point loss at St Conleth's Park - Matthew Byron, Dean Brophy, Rob Tyrrell, Eoin Dunne, Ronan Coffey, Alan Kinsella and Diarmuid Whelan (captain).

Senior panellists Sean O’Flynn and Mark Barry are unavailable due to a rule that prevents players from lining out at both grades.

Laois (Leinster U20FC v Kildare): Matthew Byron; Michael Dowling, Seamus Lacey, Alex Mohan; Colin Slevin, Jack Lacey, Dean Brophy; Robert Tyrrell, Eoin Dunne; Ronan Coffey, Michael Doran, Niall Dunne; Alan Kinsella, Dan McCormack, Diarmuid Whelan.
