Ballyskenach 6-26 ...... Raheen 0-4
Ballyskenach were far too strong for Raheen in this game, played in 'Skenach on Monday 30th June. Credit is due to Raheen who battled on despite the wide margin and while 'Skenach were undoubtedly far stronger, the scoreline perhaps does not fairly reflect the spirited effort from the Raheen side.
