Three relegation playoffs concluded last night and the Dungloe and Four Masters will both play Senior Championship football next year. The play-off will be contested between Ardara and Malin. Ardara scored 2-6 in the last 15 minutes while keeping Dungloe scoreless to go from 3-9 to 0-4 behind to make it 3-9 to 2-10 at the final whistle. In Convoy, Malin stayed within touching distance of Four Masters until the end of the third quarter when a Jamie Crawford goal put daylight between the two teams and the Donegal side were comfortable from there to the final whistle.
