Following a three-way tie in the group stages Sullivan had a play-off against Cookstown and RBAI.
Cookstown were beaten by RBAI in the opening match 1 – nil.
RBAI had a rest while Cookstown were the opening opponents for Sullivan. Cookstown knew they had to win to have any chance of qualifying. Sullivan controlled the game, had lots of goal scoring opportunities and came out as winners.
Sullivan 2 (J Matchett and R Watts) – Cookstown 0
With Cookstown now out of the competition RBAI knew they had to win their game against Sullivan, while Sullivan knew a draw would allow them to progress to the semi-final.
Again Sullivan controlled the game limiting RBAI to only a few chances, Sullivan were given a Penalty Flick when the ball hit an Inst player on the line, stopping a definite goal. The Flick was converted.
Sullivan 1 (C Robson) – RBAI 0 Sullivan now face Wallace High in the semi final.
