W.B.A. County Championship
Today (Sunday 18th August) at Llandrindod the county team were beaten by South Glamorgan in the semi final and sadly missed out on competing for the title this afternoon.
M.B.A. Division 1
RTB maintained their 100% record but only just with a count of four on the last end to win by two at Machen 12-2. Bedwas make a strong claim for the runners up spot after beating Beaufort 12-2 at home. Important wins for Blackwood 10-4 against Pontymister Athletic and Chepstow 10-4 at Crosskeys leaves Abertillery and Beaufort staring at relegation to MBA 2 next season.
M.B.A. Division 2
Rhymney Gwent go top after a 12-2 win at Newbridge. Leaders Croesyceiliog lost 12-2 at home to Cwmbran to slip into second place. Brynmawr close in on the top two with a 12-2 win against Abergavenny while Caldicot won the relegation battle at Blaina by one shot and 10-4.
M.B.A. Division 3
Pontnewydd stay on course for the title beating St Julians 10-4 with Rhymney Royal leading the chasing pack after beating Caerleon 12-2. Pontypool Park Girlings are still third after a 12-2 win at New Tredegar and Six Bells won 10-4 at Blaenavon.
M.B.A. Division 4
In the top of the table clash Firbank beat Panteg House 12-2 to become the new leaders while Abercarn are still in the mix after winning 10-4 at Whiteheads. Belle Vue won the relegation battle against Ebbw Vale Welfare 10-4 and Oakdale recorded only their second league win of the season 10-4 against Pontymister Welfare.
M.B.A. Division 5
Ynysddu return to the top after beating Gilwern 12-2 while leaders Panteg Park slipped up 12-2 at Newport Athletic. Beechwood beat Pontyfelin 12-2 but I haven't heard from Garndiffaith or Monmouth.
G.B.L. Division 1
Leaders Croesyceiliog stay top despite slipping up 10-2 at Abercarn. Bedwas move up to second after winning 10-2 at RTB while Crickhowell lost 12-0 at Pontymister Athletic. Blackwood won 8-4 at Caldicot and Newbridge won 10-2 at Chepstow.
