Duffry Rovers had to dig deep before getting the better of Kilrush

Wexford People Today at 12:30 Duffry Rovers had it tougher than many expected before their 14 men eventually pulled through against tenacious Kilrush in Sunday's third round Whizzy Internet Intermediate 'A' football championship Group B contest in sun-scorched Samaritans St. Patrick's Park. Kilrush lost Garry Doran and Peter O'Neill to the sin-bin within a minute of each other early in the second-half and shortly before Duffry Rovers saw Dylan Purcell red-carded for an offence on James Byrne, which led to Seán Kirwan producing a two-point free to close the gap to 0-13 to 0-12 after 45 minutes.

Fethard battle back to share the spoils with Crossabeg-Ballymurn

Wexford People Today at 09:30 Fethard couldn't really afford to leave Chadwicks Wexford Park on Sunday without something to show for their efforts, having drawn a blank in their opening two engagements in Group B of the Dominic Smith Electrical Senior football championship. And it certainly wasn't looking good for an upturn in fortunes at the start of the closing quarter, as Pádraig Foley kicked a two-pointer for Crossabeg-Ballymurn to leave the side that had relegated them from the top-flight two years ago with a 2-12 to 0-11 lead.
