    Go to "get directions" on the top left underneath where it says Google Maps.
    Then type in "Cavan, Ireland" for A and "Sligo, Ireland" for B.

    not really much help those maps, always use road names which mean nothing really.

    Sligo town : take the road to Enniskillen, after you go through Belcoo you look for the right turn onto the Derrylin rd- A509( nearer enniskillen than belcoo)....continue on this road (A509) all the way to Belturbet, then the road merges with the N3 primary road and takes you into Cavan town, on a good day its about a 2 hour run... allow more for game day.

    2nd that, best way to go, the Derrylin road is the right hand exit off the roundabout just as you enter Enniskillen; it's signposted Cavan/Dublin so you can't go wrong. Take it handy until you get as far as Derrylin though...bad stretch of road.

    No need to go into Belcoo, When you get to Blacklion, instead of going left into Belcoo, head straight ahead, through Florencecourt, continue on this road till the end, you come to a cross roads, straight across and at the end on this road you turn right onto the N3 into Cavan,

    You can also cut approx 20+miles of this by going straight on in Blacklion for Florencecourt (Main road veers left to Belcoo - so its esentially a right turn :rolleyes:)
    Follow this secondary road to where it joins the Main Swanlinbar road at a cross roads - carry straight on across the main road (again onto a secondary road) and after a few miles this will bring you out onto the Derrylin rd as above.
