Group 1

In group one, Mungret St Pauls received a walkover from Monaleen that guarantees them top spot with a game to play. They are the only sides assured of their place in the quarter-finals. At the other end, Monaleen will compete in the relegation final.

Feenagh Kilmeedy and Doon are level on five points each with the West side having a better scoring difference. They play Mungret while Doon play Monaleen. If both win, Doon will need to overcame a 16 point differential. Patrickswell lie in fourth on four points. If Doon and Feenagh Kilmeedy both lose, then a win for the ‘Well over Askeaton will see them through. Similarily, a win for the Well and a draw involving Feenagh Kilmeedy and Doon will bring it to scoring difference. Askeaton are out of the reckoning but are safe.

Group 2

There is a three way tie at the top of group two with Kiltely Dromkeen, St Pats and St Kierans all on six points. Kilteely Dromkeen play St Pats in the final round with the winner advancing. A draw and a loss for St Kierans will see both going through. A St Kierans win over Ahane will guarantee their progression. Monagea have an outside chance of progression but need Kilteely to beat Pats, Kierans to lose and they need to beat Garryspillane which will leave three sides on six points which will put it to score differential. Although St Pats are currently 37 points clear in that regard.

Ahane will compete in the relegation final while Garryspillane cannot advance but are safe.
