Glenbeigh stretched ahead by the minimum with a point from play but with points from Niall Sheehy and Shane O’Connor Mitchels edged ahead with 8 minutes remaining.
Glenbeigh fought hard to level the game again when Mitchels scored a vital goal from the boot of Shane O’Connor after receiving an accurate cross field pass from Niall Sheehy. Mikey Kelliher Got the final score of the game from a converted free to finish off the game leaving the final scoreline John Mitchels 1-17, Glenbeigh/Glencar 1-13.
John Mitchels gave a great and spirited display but unfortunately are gone to Division 2 for next season after their 3rd season in Division 1. Hopefully their stay in Division 2 will be short lived and will be up in Division 1 at the end of next season.
