Three matches in Division1 but by the end of the week the rankings remained the same. Morriston A drew with Nidum B and remain third. They are 4 points behind the leaders in spite of having played an extra match. Nidum A beat UK Falcons 4.5-0.5 and for a brief 24 hours held the top spot on their own - until White Knights A defeated White Knights B by the same score and moved back up alongside them.

Four matches in Division 2 so all eight teams were in action. After last week's defeat CN Emperors got back into their winning ways by whitewashing the luckless Woodman B. The following day BF Brunel played White Knights D and fielded the same team that beat the Emperors last week. But what a difference a week makes and they found themselves unexpectedly outplayed by a weaker White Knights D team who won 3.5-1.5 and who now overtake them in the rankings. In the other matches Woodman A defeated UK Merlins 4.5-0.5 and Morriston B had a 4-1 win against BF Giants. Emperors still head the table having played an extra match but White Knights D, BF Brunel and Morriston B are just two or three points behind.

Only two matches in Division 3. Morriston C had a 5-0 win over UK Hawks while White Knights E defeated CN Tribunes 3.5-1.5. Morriston C retain their position at the head of the table but the win for White Knights E takes them above BF Ferrymen albeit having played an extra match.

The Inter-Association Championship (jamboree format) held on the 24th November saw West Wales come in third behind Gwent but ahead of East Glam! West Wales had 3.5 from 8 (+2, =3, -3).
