Strokestown 0-15, Castlerea 2-9. Venue: Strokestown
A controversial last minute penalty secured a draw for Castlerea in the first championship game for the 'Town in the our new home. After a poor first half performance 'Town went in trailing by 4 points, 1-5 to 6. But 'Town emerged for the second half a completely different team. The boys went gung ho and took the game to Castlerea upping the intensity 100%. 'Town began to play some wonderful football and got fantastic scores from John Rogers and Matty Colum. A draw in the other group game between Clann na Gael and Kilbride leaves qualification from the group in the 'Towns own hands when they meet Clann at the end of June in a winner takes all game.
Team: John McHugh, Johnny Dolan, Emmet Collins, Donal Molloy, Niall Brogan, Daniel Rogers, John Hagan, Matty Colum, Seamus Collins, Enda Molloy, Paddy Brogan, Ruaidhrí Molloy, John Rogers, Colin Compton, Conor Silke.
Subs: Thomas Shanagher, Philip Duignan
