Queens University face stiff competition if they are to keep hold of their spot in Division 1B, meeting Banbridge in an exciting Ulster Derby, the winner meeting one of Cashel or MU Barnhall in the final.

Cashel will host MU Barnhall following results on the final day in the promotion play-off race, while Banbridge secured fourth spot and will meet Queens. Malone were relegated while elsewhere UL Bohemian will head to the relegation play-offs after they suffered defeat to Nenagh.

It is make or break for the Men’s teams as we tick to the final normal season weekend of the year while the Women’s Division reaches its penultimate round.

A day for the Tipperary sides on Saturday in 2A, Nenagh Ormond claimed the title while Cashel booked their ticket to the play-offs. It will go down to the final day for the final play-off spot as Banbridge narrowly lead Old Crescent in fourth. At the bottom Malone are hanging in there but need a mammoth score to stay up, Greystones, UL Bohemian and Ballymena are all in danger also at the bottom.

Nenagh Ormond will meet MU Barnhall next weekend as the title race between the two heats up, Old Crescent secured a dramatic win to keep their promotion hopes alive, while Navan moved four clear of the drop zone with a late win at home to Nenagh.
