The Bure League title race began to heat up as Halvergate entertained East Tuddenham and a fiercely competitive match ended with East Tuddenham picking up a 6-4 away win.

Saxlingham will feel unlucky to have lost 9-1 at home to Connaught, where only six shots separated the teams. Connaught's Sylvia Parsons was 10-2 up before a comeback saw Alan Banham's triple take a 12-10 lead with three ends left. Parsons' triple recovered their composure just in time to win 15-12. Sheila Bragg's triple also let a lead slip away but just like Parsons recovered to win the last three ends and grab a 14-13 win against Geoff Payne. Joe Li-Rocchi's triple held on to win by a narrow 13-11 margin while the remaining game was drawn 12-12. Connaught were held to a 5-5 draw at Hingham where home skip Steve Hall played well to produce an 18-9 win to earn the match points.
