The new kings of Kildare will face Wicklow champions Baltinglass on November 2 in Echelon Park, Aughrim

Kildare Senior Football Champions Athy will face Wicklow champions Baltinglass on Sunday, November 2 in Echelon Park, Aughrim at 1:30pm.

After their brilliant 1-17 to 0-18 win over Naas, Athy are currently in the midst of their celebrations but will no doubt have an eye on Leinster with the Championship seemingly wide open at Senior level. The new Kildare SFC champs were well worth their county final victory and should carry great confidence into their first provincial outing.
