Report by Ben Cunningham:

Relegation and promotion could be decided in some league this weekend… 

In the Mixed Premier League, Castletown Celts - who have been known to cause a few surprises - play Vikings A who they came close to beating last time out, however Vikings A know they must win or they could hand the title to their nears rivals before the final show down when the two teams meet on the final league weekend next week. 

Bacchas A who are the league leaders by two points over Vikings A play Valkyrs A who will hope they can give Bacchas a good battle like they did when the two sides met earlier in the league; Elsewhere relegation could be on the cards for Valkyrs B if they can’t get the win over Harlequins A who they face this weekend; Finally, Bacchas B play Vikings B who got the win between these two sides when they met earlier in the season. 

In Mixed Division One, the new league leaders Castletown Southerners meet Vikings D who know they need to try and get something from this game or it could be relegation for them back into Mixed Division Two next season. 

Bacchas C who lost top spot last weekend play Vikings C, with both sides needing the points this looks set to be a close match; Ramsey A play Valkyrs C who have been on a good run of form recently in their last few games - this league looks set to go down the the final weekend as to who will be champions and who will be relegated .

In Mixed Division Two, Harlequins B who secured the title of this division and now will be hoping they can finish the season undefeated play Castletown Cushags who will be happy with how their season has gone sitting mid-table. 

Bacchas Colts head down south to play Castletown Cammags in a battle between two sides that could decide who gets the runners-up spot in the league with the Castletown side currently in that spot one point ahead of 'Colts'; Finally there is a massive game between Ramsey Ravens and Valkyrs D - if Ramsey win or draw, Valkyrs D will be relegated, however if Valkyrs D can get the win over the northerners then it will go into the final weekend. 

In Mixed Division Three, league leaders Castletown Cosney play Harlequins C who will be hoping for better luck this weekend, but they will be going into this game knowing that Cosney had their first loss last time out. 

Vikings E who got a commanding victory last weekend play Bacchas D who will be on a high after beating the league leaders last weekend; Elsewhere Bacchas Mixed Bucks play Castletown Carrick who just lost out to Ramsey Rookies who have a rest week this weekend. 

This league title will go into the final weekend if both Castletown Cosney and Vikings E win; if Cosney win and Vikings E lose they will be league champions, if Vikings E win and Cosney lose it will go into the final weekend when the two teams meet each other to play it out. 

Finally in the Mixed U15’s League, Ramsey play Harlequins; Valkyrs meet Castletown Sharks and Bacchas play Castletown Sabres.
