The middle tier to the rear of the seated area is a full row of offices, display area, catering facility, Managers office, drugs testing room and a post match media area.

Overhead all the seats is the main media centre which contains 6 radio boxes, 2 team Managers boxes, video platform and ample space for other media and corporate visitors.

The whole stand is finished to a very high standard and is the only stand in Ireland built to the most recent structural guidelines.

Following that is the main event with Leitrim facing Galway in the Senior Football Championship at 2pm.

The final fixture is the first round of the Ted Webb competition between Leitrim v Galway at 5pm. This game was originally scheduled for the following weekend but owing to the running of the Feile na nÓg event the game was brought forward.
