In the first round of the Leinster Senior League Cup and Leinster Seconds League Cup both 1sts and 2nds had a disappointing start. The seniors were comprehensively beaten 6-56 by a Lansdowne team that featured a number of players bordering on Leinster standard. Arguably this will the toughest match that the seniors will experience this season. The Seconds too suffered defeat by 18-38.
