It's still nail-bitingly tight in men's Division 5 as the teams brace themselves for the final day of games at Walsall tomorrow.
The top five know they will head for Championship 4 in the New Year. The remaining three will fall through the trap door that means no participation in the second half of the season and the prospect of requalifying for 2020/21 through the play-off tournament.
Caledonia Storm enjoyed a great day, leaping from 7th at the start to first place thanks to wins over Chester (8-6) and Leeds (8-7). The Scots have eight points, followed by Chester, Invicta Marlins, Leeds, Newport and Sheffield Dolphins all on seven. Chelmsford aren't out of it altogether but will need to beat Chester in their final game tomorrow and hope other results work in their favour.
Men's Division 2 still has a full weekend of games to anticipate, but Exeter boosted their prospects of qualifying for Championship 1 by beating Portobello 15-14 at Aldershot. They never trailed the Scots but had to rely on late goals from Sam Alberici to ensure victory after Portobello levelled at 12-12. Jack Cutting (pictured today by Trevor Hyde) scored five for Exeter.
Andy Holt's two man-up goals in the final quarter earned Watford a 6-4 victory over Worthing.
