Rugby was the only winner on the day as Ramsey and Vagabonds fought each other to a standstill and a 3-3 draw at Ballafletcher.
Fintan Cummins’ penalty gave Ramsey a 3-0 half-time lead but he will rue an easy chance which drifted wide midway through the opening period.
In the second half, Vagabonds levelled the score with a Leigh Kennaugh penalty but he too will regret a decision to opt from a scrummage midway through the half, when an easy penalty would have given them the win.
