Young Munster power to Junior Cup final

Young Munster booked their place in the Bank of Ireland Munster Junior Cup final while St Mary’s and Waterpark were relegated from Division 1 of the league.

Young Munster defeated Bandon 19-7 at Tom Clifford Park to reach the decider. A Paul Downes penalty gave the home side a 3-0 half time lead. Tries by Paul Allen and Dermot Gallagher and two more penalties by Downes saw The Cookies qualify.

An injury to prop Tim Crowley was a huge blow to Bandon who had a try from Olan Crowley, which was converted by Chris Laidler.
