Last Saturday the Inter-club Championships were played at Ballybrake Stadium Ballymoney.
West Down were represented by Tullylish, Dromore NS and St Johns Gilford.
St Johns had a tough draw against Redemer Dundalk losing the game while Dromore NS, having won their first game against Rathfriland, lost in their second game to Cookstown High School.
Tullylish progressed to the final beating Cookstown Parochial, who were last year's winners, only to be beaten by Cookstown High School.
The Tullylish Club deserves credit to have gotten this far in the competition as they played well against stiff opponents.
