Goals from John Mullan, Tom Phelan and a brace from James Bergin sent them on their way to a 4-9 to 0-5 half-time lead, but their Wexford opponents rallied in the second half.

Eoin Corcoran, Jack Hobbs and Shane Quinn all found the back of the net for Ballygarrett to cut the deficit to four, but it wasn’t enough to prevent Conahy Shamrocks from achieving Leinster success again.

It was much more straight-forward for Tullaroan who inflicted a 12-point defeat on Seir Kieran in the Leinster intermediate final.
Captain Shane Walsh posted 2-13 to help steer Tullaroan to victory, while former Kilkenny legend Tommy Walsh helped himself to two points as part of a comprehensive win.
Joe Bergin was the top-scorer for Seir Kieran, hitting 1-6 throughout, but the Offaly side were ultimately overpowered by the Kilkenny champions.
