FIXTURES: Check out Cork footballers' Division 2 national league schedule

THE Cork senior footballers will begin their bid to win promotion from Division 2 of the Allianz Football League against Meath in Páirc Uí Chaoimh on January 29th.

This is one of four home fixtures in the league for John Cleary’s men, including three of their first four games, as dates, venues and throw-in times were confirmed.

The visit of Dublin to Leeside on Sunday, February 19th will attract a lot of attention, as the Rebels begin their campaign against three Leinster teams – home to Meath, away to Kildare and home to Dublin.

On paper, Cork’s second half of their Division 2 schedule looks kinder, as both Limerick and Derry head to Páirc Uí Chaoimh, while the Rebels travel to both Clare and Louth. 

Cork’s 2023 Allianz Football League Division 2 fixtures are as follows:

Round 1: Sunday, January 29th – Cork v Meath, Páirc Uí Chaoimh, at 1.30pm

Round 2: Sunday, February 5th – Kildare v Cork, St Clonleth’s Park, Newbridge, at 2pm

Round 3: Sunday, February 19th – Cork v Dublin, Páirc Uí Chaoimh, at 3.45pm

Round 4: Sunday, February 26th – Cork v Limerick, Páirc Uí Chaoimh, at 3.45pm

Round 5: Sunday, March 5th – Clare v Cork, Cusack Park, Ennis, at 2pm
