   Blackman and Gollop, who had won the rally this year by pipping St Giles by one goal, continued their trek towards a possible finals by crushing Chalky Mount 10-0 and then ending the day with an 11-4 win over Blackman and Gollop B in Zone One.
Earlier, Blackman and Gollop B had defeated Good Shepherd 7-2, with Good Shepherd rebounding by stopping George Lamming Primary 7-2. George Lamming Primary had opened the play-offs with a 7-2 victory over Chalky Mount.
St Giles were ruthless in both of their Zone Two games where they hammered Cuthbert Moore Primary 18-1 and then wrecked Hillaby Turner Hall 19-0. Cuthbert Moore rebounded by defeating A. DaCosta Edwards Primary 8-1.
However, A. DaCosta Edwards also lost to Luther Thorne 8-0, who also shut out Hillaby 9-0 in their second match. (KB)
