The Men's Energia All Ireland Junior Cup Round one draw was made recently with Tuam RFC receiving a home tie against Athy RFC.

Tuam qualified for this competition for the second year in a row courtesy of a second successive third place finish in the J1A league.

It'll be Tuam's fifth time in the competition having previously drawn Cashel (2009), Coleraine (2011), Newcastle West (2021) and Enniskillen last year who incidentally ended up in the final only to narrowly lose out to Bective Rangers, 37-31.

It'll be just the second time Garraun Park will host an All Ireland men's junior cup club tie with the Tuam v Newcastle West game in October 2021, the only other occasion. That day the Munster outfit ran out 24-6 winners.

Kick off time and date for Tuam v Athy will be confirmed at a later date but the game will take place the weekend of Oct 25th.
