End March seems about right. The First Round has to be decided in time for the 2nd, which is scheduled for the weekend of 8 June.
In case it helps, on the assumption that the arrangements of previous years hold again, the sixteen teams that qualify for the First Round from the Intermediate Cup are: Avondale United, Mayfield United, UCC, Carrigaline United (all Munster Senior League), Tolka Rovers, Malahide United, Drumcondra, St Patricks CY, St Mochtas, Belgrove/Home Farm, St Francis, UCD, Bluebell United, Leixlip United, Phoenix (all Leinster Senior League) and Cockhill Celtic (Ulster Senior League).
The four teams that will qualify from the FAI Junior Cup have yet to be decided. The Quarter-Finals are:
Sheriff YC v Geraldines
Ballynanty v Liffey Wanderers
Carew Park v St Michaels (to be played this weekend)
Collinstown v NUI Galway
I haven't details for the others though they, too, are due any day now.
