Game 1 – Roche 0-3 (9) – St Patricks A 0-4 (12)

Roche and the St Patricks A team served up a great first game with the emphasis from both teams on attack with the home side wasteful in front of goals and were made pay with the Pats leading 4 scores to 1 at half  time. Hard and all as Roche tried and although winning the second half on the score board the Pats held on to win. Best players for St Pats were Ciaran Murphy, Ryan Duffy and Luke Higgins. For Roche Gerard Browne, Lorna Ryan and Glen Stewart.

Game 2 – St Patricks B 2-1 (5) – Cu Gaels 0-5 (15)

Another great game with Cu Gaels just proving too strong for a gallant St Pats team. Cu Gaels were ahead by 5pts at half time but got a scare as St Pats drew level but the stronger Cu Gaels team ran out winners in the end with a couple of late scores. Best for Cu Gaels were Caoimh Rodgers and Tara Rodgers for St Pats Jake McArdle and Brendan Woods.

Game 3 – Na Piarsaigh 0-1 (3) – Dowdallshill 0-2 (6)

This was a tightly fought game between two of the youngest teams on the night. Dowdallshill were 6pts to nil up at half time but a spirited second half from Na Pirasiagh saw them come close to getting a draw. Best players for Dowdallshill were Dylan Crosby, Jordan Lee, Abbi O’Connor and Conor Mc Gailey. For Na Piarsaigh Amy Kelly and Aaron Quinn.
