The two matches played in Division 1 went to form with Nidum B beating Falcons 4-1 and White Knights A managing to overcome Morriston A 3-2. The Falcons' defeat sees them firmly stuck at the bottom of the table and now with 3 defaults. One more and they start collecting penalty points. The White Knights win resulted in them jumping above Nidum A and topping Division 1 by virtue of half a game point. This was White Knights last match before they head off to Rhodes and by the time they come back they can expect Nidum to have regained top spot.

The White Knights' team heading to Rhodes consists of Bill Hewitt, Alan Young, Jason Garcia, David Guy, Adam May, David Buttell and Nicholas Evans. They are in for a few tough games and we wish them well.

In Division 2 the over the board result in the White Knights D v CN Emperors match saw Emperors win 4-1. It transpired, however, that White Knights had made an agreed substitution that resulted in players being out of order with regard to grades. Although an agreed substitution is allowed the Divisional Controller was not told until after the result had been reported and decided to score the match 5-0 to Emperors. Emperors now have a comfortable lead at the top of the Division. In the other match played UK Merlins simultaneously picked up their first win of the season while adding to Woodman B's woes by defeating them 4-1.

Both Morriston D and White Knights E In Division 3 also achieved their first wins of the season by defeating UK Eagles and BF Ferrymen respectively while Morriston C beat UK Hawks. Morriston C now lead the following pack by two clear points with a match in hand.
