Armagh’s finest from Madden and Cullhanna will meet at the Athletic Grounds on Sunday to try and add their name to the roll of honour of senior football championship winners.
St Patrick’s have made the final for the third time in the club’s history, with the south Armagh side losing previous senior deciders in 2016 and 2013.
More recently, the black, red and amber were successful at the Intermediate Football Championship level, winning the county, provincial, and All-Ireland titles in 2023/24.

On the other side of the draw, Cullyhanna came into the fold in the last eight, beating St Peter’s, Lurgan, before beating South Armagh rivals Crossmaglen Rangers for a spot in the final.
