A NEW season of point-to-pointing gets underway, with the traditional curtain-raising fixture in Toomebridge this afternoon.

The Mid-Antrim fixture is one of 26 point-to-points scheduled for the autumn term, a decrease from one on the 2024 pre-Christmas campaign. This follows the disappointing news that the West Waterford fixture at Boulta on November 9th was cancelled before the season got up and running.
