DERRY will play their fifth Christy Ring Cup final as part of a triple header in Croke Park later this month.

Cavan will also be part of the billing in the Lory Meagher but must wait to see if it is Monaghan or New York they face.

That game will take place in Mullingar this Saturday to finalise the makeup of the following weekend’s schedule.

Derry booked their spot in a fourth final in five years with their 2-30 to 1-13 win over Wicklow last weekend at Celtic Park.

Cavan are in a first Lory Meagher final since losing to neighbours Fermanagh in the 2021 decider.

Monaghan were the last Ulster team to win it, seeing off Lancashire in a high-scoring classic two years later.

Saturday, May 31 – Croke Park
Nickey Rackard Cup: Mayo v Roscommon 1pm
Lory Meagher Cup: Cavan v New York 3pm
Christy Ring Cup: Derry v London 5pm
