Kilmaley 1-15
Sixmilebridge 1-14
Venue: Shannon

The 'Bridge Seniors exited the Clare Cup on Friday evening following a 1 point defeat to table toppers Kilmaley. Following a 1st half goal form Brian Corry the Bridge lead for most of the game but a goal from Cian Moloney eight minutes from the end turned this semi-final in Kilmaley’s favour.

The Bridge management while disappointed with the result will be satisfied with the number of new players they got to see in Clare Cup action this year which will give them lots to think about as they sit down to pick the team for the first round of the Championship versus Newmarket in 3 weeks time.
