At Tyrrellspass GAA · Mullingar Road, Templeoran South, Tyrrellspass, Co. Westmeath
Delvin take on Rosemount in round one of the Westmeath Junior 2 Football Championship at Tyrrellspass GAA on Monday, 27 July 2026, with throw-in at 5:30pm. Junior 2 is the county’s fourth tier of club football, and this fixture opens the group stage for both sides. Tyrrellspass, roughly midway between the two competing clubs, was named as the neutral venue when the county board published its full first round draw in early July.
A Monday evening throw-in keeps things simple: two junior sides, a village pitch, and a smaller but committed crowd of club members, family and neighbours from Delvin and Rosemount. Junior 2 football does not carry the profile of the senior or intermediate grades, but for the players and clubs involved a championship win is exactly as prized, and both Delvin and Rosemount will have been building towards this fixture through the summer. Expect a straightforward club gate, a scoreboard run by volunteers, and the kind of low-key, community-rooted GAA that makes up the bulk of fixtures played across Westmeath every week during the summer months. Results here shape group placings ahead of the knockout stages later in the championship.
Tyrrellspass sits on the N6 Dublin to Galway road in the east of County Westmeath, with Bus Éireann services stopping in the village. The GAA grounds are on the Mullingar Road on the edge of the village, a short walk from the main street. Car parking is available at the grounds.
Tyrrellspass is known for its distinctive oval village green and castle, a legacy of its 18th century planned layout, and is worth a short walk around before or after the football. It sits conveniently between Mullingar and Kilbeggan for anyone making a longer evening of it. There is more to see in Tyrrellspass and across Co. Westmeath.
