Kehoe Cup Coming Down To The Wire

January 27th, 2023

This weekend Round 5 of the Kehoe Cup takes centre stage with two games down for decision.

Rank Team P W D L F A PTS
1 Kildare 3 3 0 0 69 40 6
2 Carlow 4 3 0 1 105 82 6
3 Meath 3 2 0 1 68 61 4
4 Down 3 0 0 3 57 84 0
5 Wicklow 3 0 0 3 39 71 0
Rank Team P W D L F A PTS

To say it the permutations aren’t straightforward would be putting it mildly. As we approach the Final round Kildare remain in the driving seat, with 3 wins from 3. However, should their hosts Meath claim a victory tomorrow it brings into play a number of varying scenarios.

As it stands a draw or a victory for Kildare is enough to see them claim the title. A win for Meath can lead to the following;

  • If Kildare win or draw – Kildare Win Kehoe Cup. 
  • If Meath win by less than 6 points    Kildare Win Kehoe Cup. 
  • If Meath win by 6 points  –  Scores ‘For’ Decides the winner. 
  • If Meath win by 7 to 16 points  –  Carlow Win Kehoe Cup. 
  • If Meath win by more that 16 points  –  Meath Win Kehoe Cup. 
  • If Score difference is the same for 3 counties    Scores For Decides.
