There was nearly an upset last week at the Dingle as the home side took a quick 4-0 lead, only for the Stanley B to take the next four frames, setting up a tense final frame. The Dingle had to draft in Dicky Morris, who is known more as a dart player, to help them out, and they just clinched it.

Kilgetty RAOB A moved even closer to becoming champions after a big win over the Bush Rob, which nearly ended in bed and breakfast on the agenda such was the lateness of the match. The Dragon A went 2-0 down at Cresselly, but won the next five frames to take the points. There was a last frame win for the SSSC A at the Temple Bar A, while the Greenbridge secured a comfortable 7-2 over the Hean. The local derby saw a close win for the Jeff A at Lawrenny, while Station House A won at the RAOB, gaining a win in the singles.

On Monday, the Dingle made the trip to the Station House A in an important rearranged match and lost by 6-3, which means that Kilgetty RAOB A now only need to win two of their remaining matches to take top spot.

In the B League, there was no change as all the top teams picked up wins. The biggest of them was a whitewash for the Whitland Dairies over Temple Bar B. The RAOB B are still top after a good 7-2 win over the KSSC, while Kilgetty RAOB B gained a good away victory at SSSC B. The Iron Duke gained a walkover as the Eagle once again couldn't field a side.

Just to clarify the rules: If a team has three claimed matches against them because of cancellations on the night, they are not allowed to cancel another as they will then be not allowed to play in the league. So other teams who are in the same boat take note.

Anyway on to the other matches, the Cross Clarbeston gained a home win over the SSSC C, as did the Angel Llan over local rivals the Bush Llan and the Wisemans Bridge gained a last frame win over the Jeff B.

The big match in the C League saw the Whitland sides, the Bowls Club and Station House B battle it out to gain second spot and it was the Station boys who took the match on the last two doubles. The White Horse A made the short trip down to Begelly Arms and gained a 9-0, while their B team pulled off a 7-2 at home to the RFC. The Alpha teams both secured 7-2 wins, with the A team picking up the points at the Stanley A, while the B team defeated the Taf. Two teams beating higher placed teams were the Cross Broadmoor at the Sporting Chance and the Dragon B over the Greenbridge B.

NB: This Sunday sees the all important quarter-finals of the team knockout: Sporting Chance v St. House A; Narberth RAOB B v Dingle; Temple Bar A v Dragon A; and Kilgetty RAOB A v Narberth RAOB A.
