Meath and Antrim have been told that the Christy Ring Cup final must be replayed.
The Royals were presented with the trophy after their 2-18 to 1-20 final win over Antrim at Croke Park on Saturday but afterwards it emerged that the game actually finished level.
The CCCC met today and they decided that a replay will take place on Saturday June 11th at 7pm in Páirc Esler, Newry.
In a statement the CCCC said: "Following consideration of the referee's report, it has been confirmed that the final score of the game was recorded incorrectly and that the game did finish in a draw (Antrim 1-20, Meath 2-17)."
