Evergreen did come up short in the previous round against Ashbourne however there were reports that the opposing team fielded an ineligible player for the encounter. It has since been confirmed by club sources that one player registered with Ashbourne had previously played an FAI intermediate game with St. Kevins, which would have ruled him out of participating in the LFA Junior Cup for a different team. Now the Kilkenny Premier Division leaders and defending champions are back as they search for a coveted, so far elusive, Leinster title.
