On Valentines evening, Dublin travelled to Dunganny, to take on Meath in the opening round of the Ladies Football Leinster Minor Championship.

The Dublin Senior Hurlers travelled to Carlow for round 3 of the Allianz league, Lucan was represented by Chris Crummy (0-2) on the pitch and Johnny McCaffrey in the Eir Sport commentary box.
