FOR THE FIRST time in 11 years, Mourneabbey won’t feature in the Cork Senior A ladies club football championship final.
Mourneabbey were dethroned after a 3-8 to 3-7 defeat to Glanmire this evening.
That result, coupled with St Vals’ 1-14 to 0-7 win over Fermoy, means Glanmire and St Vals progress to the Senior A semi-finals.
Mourneabbey and Castlehaven go into the last four of the Senior B competition.
Aghada and Eire Óg currently occupy other group’s qualifying positions.
This result and @stvalsladies win means that for the first time in 11 years Mourneabbey won't be in the Senior A championship final. Glanmire and Vals head for the semis with Mourneabbey and Castlehaven into the Senior B semi finals. https://t.co/R4EqPc1fla

Mourneabbey were the defending Cork Senior A champions, having won nine titles in 10 seasons.
They also won seven Munster titles and two All-Irelands in that glittering period.
It’s the latest shock in ladies club football across the country. Donaghmoyne were dethroned in Monaghan last weekend, with Magheracloone sensationally ending their 22 in-a-row bid, while Dublin heavyweights Foxrock-Cabinteely were defeated by Cuala in a senior relegation play-off midweek.
