For the large crowd that attended the Under 16 Group F final in Dunganny this thriller will live long in the memory. 

When these two teams met earlier in the year the Kells side came out on top by a massive 32 points. But the Blackhall lads are made of stern stuff and the improvement was there for all to see. The lead changed hands several times in the last 10 minutes but Blackhall held on for a famous victory. 

Blackhall Gaels: Colin Byrne, Paul Codd, James Ruddy, Alan O'Toole (0-1), Barry O'Toole, Harry McCahy, Luke Jennings, Conor Daly, James Kelly (0-1), Peter Coakley, Conor Duffy (0-6), David Sheeran, Kealan forde (0-1), Alexander Hayden (2-2), Charlie Mulligan (0-1).
