ALL-IRELAND champions Kilcoo will put their Ulster title on the line against the champions of Armagh or Monaghan, should they successfully defend their Down title this season.

The draws for the Ulster Championships were made on Thursday night, with all games to be played in October, November and December this year.

If Sleacht Néill hurlers are top of the tree in Derry again, they will face the winners of Down in the Ulster semi-final.
