CASTLEBAR MITCHELS ARE back in the Mayo senior football final for the first time since 2017, the season when they completed three-in-a-row, after today’s 1-16 to 0-14 success over Breaffy in the opening semi-final in Charlestown.
Castlebar Mitchels received an early boost when Joe Forry found the net for what transpired to be the only goal of the game. They were ahead 1-4 to 0-3 after 12 minutes and had stretched their advantage further to go in front 1-11 to 0-7 by the break.

The Mitchels remained in control, 1-13 to 0-10 ahead, with eight minutes left, and although Breaffy cut the deficit to four points late on, that was as close as they came with Castlebar running out five-point victors.
The second semi-final on Sunday sees Garrymore face Belmullet at 1pm in James Stephens Park, Ballina.
