Castlebar Town (Rumley Cup) and Straide & Foxford (Mary Walsh Cup) booked their places in the semi-finals of their respective competitions last night.

Town welcomed Swinford to Castlebar where Louise Dowling was quick off the mark with a goal in the first minute.

Always expect a tight affair between these league title contenders and a second goal didn't materialise until minute 82, Dowling again, getting on the end of a delivery from Shauna Redmond.

Beth Roache had Swinford's sole score on 89 minutes.

It took extra time to sort out matters between Crossmolina and S&F where it finished 2-2 after 90 minutes.

Rebecca Conlon put S&F into the lead on seven minutes with the home side replying through Dara Moore 10 minutes later.

S&F nudged ahead again five minutes into the second half through Fiona Roache before Moore netted again to level it with 64 minutes played.

Second-half substitute Erin Mulroy was to prove the difference between the sides, with two goals in extra time to ensure her side progress.

Straide & Foxford will now meet Kilmore away in the Mary Walsh Cup semi-finals, with Killala at home to Ballinrobe.

In the Rumley Cup, Conn Rangers host Kiltimagh Knock United in their semi-final, with Castlebar Town meeting Manulla.

All semi-finals will be played on Friday, August 11.
