Both groups in the County Senior Football Championship are wide open following the weekend’s action.

While Father Casey’s moved into second place with a 3-10 to 11 point win over Dromcollogher Broadford.

Na Piarsaigh, meanwhile, secured a vital first championship win of the campaign, the saw off Rathkeale 1-12 to 11 points, and in doing so leapfrogged their opponents into second from bottom.

Group 2 is even tighter following an action-packed weekend.

Oola shocked unbeaten Newcastle West in a thrilling game, to record their second win of the campaign on a 3-8 to 1-13 score line to move them within a point of the leaders.

Meanwhile, St Patricks also picked up a somewhat surprising victory over Ballylanders on a score line of 1-14 to 0-11.

While Ballysteen showed that they won’t be going down without a fight as they played out a 1-8 to 11 points draw with St Kieran’s, who would have found themselves top of the pile had they managed to claim victory.
