The Ulster Council have confirmed that MacCumhaill Park will be the venue for the Ulster Minor quarter-final between Donegal and Tyrone on October 24th and for its Senior counterpart on Saturday October 31st. Clones has been ruled out as a venue for any games requiring floodlights and hence is unlikely to host any Saturday semif-finals, nor will it host the Ulster final.
