Kilfeacle lose out on All Ireland Junior Cup

Kilfeacle took an early 3 point lead after just 10 minutes thanks to a penalty – they also had the benefit of a strong wind in the first half.

The second half saw little between the teams – as they exchanged penalties – to leave the score at 8 points to 6 to Ashbourne

Another Ashbourne penalty brought the gap to 5 points between the sides, and they stretched that even further with a try – leaving Kilfeacle with too much to do.

It finished Kilfeacle 9 points Ashbourne 18.

Meanwhile, Cashel have overcome Cork’s Highfield in a low scoring encounter at Spa field.

It was nil all at half time, with Cashel notching up the first points on the board thanks to a penalty just after half time.
