Summary
- Scotstown seeks All-Ireland semi-final victory after bridging a 36-year Ulster gap.
- The team has won three successive Monaghan titles and conquered Ulster.
- Scotstown faces formidable opponents St Brigid's, six-time Connacht champions.

Scotstown is preparing to contest the All-Ireland semi-final this Sunday, looking to continue their successful season. The team achieved a significant milestone by winning the Ulster title for the first time since 1989, a feat that followed their third consecutive Monaghan championship title in October. Their path to this stage was arduous, marked by several games requiring extra-time, and even a penalty shootout in one instance, demonstrating their resilience and determination.
Their opponents in the semi-final are St Brigid's from Roscommon. This team is a powerhouse in Connacht football, having secured six provincial titles and achieving national success with an All-Ireland title in 2013. St Brigid's also reached the All-Ireland final as recently as two years ago, indicating their consistent performance at the highest level of the sport.
