Doonbeg will remain in the TUS Clare Senior Football Championship for the 2025 season.
The Magpies had a crucial two point win over neighbours Kilmihil in Cooraclare, running out 1-10 to 0-11 victors.
Paul Dillon’s goal proved crucial for the winners who overcame a man deficit after David McInerney was dismissed for a second yellow card shortly before the break.
Kilmihil will have one last chance to stay up in a fortnights time when they face Corofin in the last playoff tie.
