Ronan Kenny had Ballyheigue's first point from a free and Brian Leen had Abbeydorney's 2nd goa. Points from Daniel OLeary, Jason Fealy, Darragh O'Connell and 2 from Padraig Kelly gave Abbeydorney the advantage at half time, O'Dorney 2-5, Ballyheigue 0-4. PJ Keane and James O'Connor playing mighty stuff for Abbeydorney with Ronan Kenny in top form for Ballyheigue.
In the second half Darragh O'Connell added 2 points to give Abbeydorney a 9 point lead but Ballyheigue came more into the game when Shane Dunne was moved from full forward and began to cause problems for Abbeydorney, 1-1 from him and a point from Kevin Reidy and Ronan Kenny brought Abbeydorney's lead down to 2 points but Darragh O'Connell added 2 points to give Abbeydorney a 4 point win over a tough dogged Ballyheigue team.
Abbeydorney will have to improve in all sectors of the pitch if they are going to have any chance against Kilmoyley who defeated Lixnaw on a score 2-15 to 1-10.
