'Division 1B title gives us confidence' says Mullaghbawn's Fergal O'Brien ahead of the Championship
The south Armagh men were low on confidence this time last year having been relegated from Division 1A, but with a title under their belts, O’Brien says that they will have a spring in their step heading into a group which contains Armagh Harps, Dromintee and Ballymacnab.
“Definitely. We're a young enough team, so the league win will do us the world of good,” he said.

“Hopefully we can pick up a few wins and get a bit of a run going. Experience mightn't be on our side, but we'll give it a go.”
They begin their campaign at home to Armagh Harps on Sunday, with throw-in at 6.30pm.
