Elsewhere, the relegations draw was made for the teams who finished bottom of the senior hurling groups, with Moycarkey Borris set to play Éire Óg Annacarty, with Templederry Kenyons standing to face Mullinahone in the other game., with the fixtures to be made in the coming days.
The intermediate draw has been delayed due to the result between Borrisokane and Knockavilla Kickhams earlier today, with the sides finishing joint-second on the same points and scoring difference, as the county board are awaiting direction from Croke Park on resolving the situation.
