200 Club A reached their second semi-final place this season with a very hard fought match against the Carbeile C. 200 led 5-4 after the nine doubles then went 6-4 ahead after the first singles only to lose the next three singles to trail 7-6 leaving Carbeile C only needing one more win to take them through. They found Charles Allsop and Shaun Roche too much to handle with the 200 A pair both winning their singles and the match for the 200 Club A 8-7.

Wilcove Hotshots move into the semi-final with an 8-4 win over Kings A. Hotshots led 5-4 after the doubles and rounded off the victory with the first three singles through J Sampson, R Jones and G Bettinson. Hotshots will now be playing the MOF in the semi-final.

King Pins went to Millbrook Football Club and trailed 5-4 after the doubles but came on strong in the singles with wins from K Harris, W Cooper, A Miller and M Webb, this being enough to win the match by 8-6. The only singles winner for the Football Club was M White.

Mark of Friendship came back with a win against the Wheelers B who had beaten the Mark the week before by 5-4. This time the Mark led 5-4 after the Doubles and wrapped up victory with three singles wins from A Kidd, A Walker and D Dillon.
