The Leinster Minor Hurling and Football finals have been postponed due to the move to Level 5 restrictions.
The province's minor football final between Offaly and Meath was due to take place on 3 January at Parnell Park, the day after the hurling decider at Portlaoise's O'Moore Park in which Offaly were also due to be involved against Kilkenny on Saturday, 2 January.
Regrettably, the GAA has been informed that under the new Level 5 restrictions, inter-county minor games are not allowed after 27th Dec., so the Leinster MFC & MHC finals are postponed.
