Longford ladies senior champions Clonguish beaten by St Maurs, Dublin in Leinster Intermediate Club semi-final

St Maurs (Dublin) . . . 2-14    Clonguish . . . 1-8

St Maurs, who were the 2016 All-Ireland Junior Club Champions, had the backing of a strong wind in the first half. They settled quickly to their task and ran up a 1-9 to 0-0 lead by the 25th minute but Clonguish finished the first half strongly with a goal from Cliodhna Allen and points from Aoife Darcy, Oonagh Shanley and Aishling Greene.

Further scores on the changeover from Aoife Darcy (2) and Cliodhna Allen closed the gap to just four points but then a fortuitous goal by St Maurs dashed the Clonguish comeback.
