After overcoming Galtee Rovers in the County Intermediate Final on Sunday last in Cashel, Cahir now look forward to the Munster Intermediate Club Championship.

The second half resumed with three quick points from Cahir and Galtee Rovers adding two points of their own before Roisin Finnane, Galtee Rovers netted the ball.
