This leaves an exciting final night that could go down to the last game of the evening to decide the runners up and relegation positions:
– Cropredy require 6 bonus points to ensure the top spot
– First game of the night sees Hook Norton play Sandford, a tough game, which could decide winner/runner up positions.
– Game 2 sees Shipston play Banbury Veterans which could decide the Vets relegation fate.
– Game 3 sees Cropredy play Chipping Norton (who have not won a game this year) but, if Cropredy slip up and Hooky match the final points tally Hooky would be winners as they won the head to head Cropredy game.
– Last game of the night sees Banbury play Ruscote; although only having won two games Ruscote are capable of causing an upset.
– The relegation battle between Banbury Veterans (61 points) and Ruscote (60 points) may well come down to bonus points.
Good luck to all teams on Tuesday.
