The Junior Division games will be held at the River Lane, Blarney street. The Gallows jumped from 3rd place to 1st and advance to a semi-final spot, by getting a 5-0 win against the Tower bar last week. Bernard McCarthy started the winning streak for the Gallows with a 2-0 victory against Jason Murphy. Following that, Terry Ryan, Ciaran Coifer and Michael Shubart registered 2-0 wins against Jason O’Flynn, Connie Buckley and Dean Murphy. The final game of the contest was Eddie Madigan for the Gallows facing Paul O’Sullivan for the Tower. O’Sullivan was about to dampen the prospects of the Gallows topping the group by going 1 up but Madigan found form at the right time and checked out the next 2 legs, gaining a vital point for the Gallows. Joining the Gallows in the semi-finals are the Muskerry Arms and they both await the winners of Jack Fords V the Tower and Fox & Hounds V the Island Tavern.
