No fairytale start for Kiskeam as Avondhu flex their muscles

Avondhu 3-20

A strong Avondhu side had a big win over Kiskeam in the first round of the Cork SFC at Banteer yesterday. The divisional side, who lost to eventual winners Carbery Rangers in the 2016 semi-final, had too much firepower for the Duhallow men.

Still, it was a historic day for the Kiskeam club as last season’s Premier intermediate champions were playing their first match in senior grade. And while they shipped a heavy defeat, their tally of 2-11 will provide encouragement as they move ahead.
