It was the Ladies who were in a top of the table match. They made a terrific start by winning the first leg 8-3 and followed this with a 6-5 second leg win to have a comfortable 14-8 lead at the halfway stage. In the third leg another 7-4 win put them within two points of victory but disaster in the final leg, losing seven of the next eight; they just managed to get over the line two frames from the end and finished with a 23-21 victory.

In the Men's A match a strong home side won the first leg 7-4, but the visitors hit back to take the second leg 6-5 and then played very well to take the third 7-4 and go into the final leg one frame ahead. With some very close games the home side edged in 6-5 for a 22 all draw.

The B team, already assured of a place in next years National Finals, won the first leg by the odd frame 6-5 but really pushed on in the second losing only two games. The home side hit back in the third for a 6-5 win but Norfolk came back with a 7-4 final leg win to take the match 27-17.

The Youth match was a see-saw affair with the home team taking a 7-4 first leg lead, but the visitors reversed that score in the second leg to even things up. The visitors then edged the third leg 6-5 but the home team won the final leg 8-3 to win the match 24-20.
