Portlaw have retained their top flight status for this season after a comfortable victory over Ballinameela in this afternoon's Relegation Final Replay at the Gold Coast pitch.
The Eastern side were always in control and lead by 0-7 to 0-1 at half-time having played with the wind in the opening period.
Three goals upon the resumption from Jordan Sullivan, John Power and DJ Foran were the crucial scores as Portlaw ran out 3-9 to 0-8 winners.
Ballinameela will play their trade in the Western Intermediate football Championship for 2018.
Carriganore hosted the Western U-21 B Hurling Championship Final, where Comeragh Gaels were crowned champions following a 1-10 to 0-6 win over neighbours Fourmilewater.
They'll now face Portlaw/Ballyduff Lower in the County Final on a date to be decided.
