Reports:-

1.Huntsham A forgot to turn up until the 3rd rub as Tiverton Chiefs quickly went 28 pins up, the home side got to within 8 before the Chiefs pulled 5 in the 6th for a 13 pin win, to little to late as the chiefs drop back to div c.
2.Bullocks took an early 5 pin lead against Barley Mow but with the away side pulling on the remaining 5 rubs they cruised to a 30 pin win.
3.Prince B with big pulls of 21 and 17 against Redwoods they cantered to a 55 pin win but luckily the away side avoid the drop.
4.All Blacks and HCC2 shared the rubs but the away side pulled out a little extra to claim an 8 pin win leaving the away side playing in div c next season.
5.Uplowman struggled early doors against Tim’s Princes who built up enough of a lead to see them through to a 22 pin win.
6.Catherine Wheel and The Hounds kept things pretty close but a 14 pin pull in the 5th was enough to see the home side to an 11 pin win.
7.Oggies and Barley Knockons fight out the final game to decide the title, the home side drew first blood going 20 up at the half way stage, the away side drew 16 back leaving it close going into the final rub. Even with anchor man T White smashing a 74 the away side could not hold The Oggies who pulled a final 7 pins to win by 11 and become DIV A CHAMPIONS….. WELL DONE LADS!!!
