Round Seven Pennant Preview

Two matches in the First and Second grade combined competition this weekend will be of vital importance to the sides involved. Firstly Sawtell travel to Nambucca in what could be their final roll of the dice if they are to have any hope of running down Park Beach for the first grade flag. Nambucca will be looking to take full advantage of their home ground as they look to move back into the lead of the grade two sides with a win. The two other sides in contention for the second grade flag will also clash this weekend with Park Beach seconds hosting West Coffs. Parky currently lead the second grade but have a tough couple of weeks ahead and need to win this one to keep on track. For West Coffs, a loss is not an option if they are to maintain any hopes of a flag this year as they already trail the leading sides coming into this match.

In Grade Three the match that should determine the flag is to be played when leaders Coffs host nearest opposition Park Beach. If Coffs can win this one it is hard to see anyone running them down, however should Parky repeat the dose from their first encounter then it will also keep Woolgoolga as
well as themselves in contention.

Grade Four will see the ladder leaders clash when Urunga travels to Park Beach hoping to defend their lead. The clash between Nambucca and Coffs will also be a cracker with both sides still hanging in by the skin of their teeth for the flag.

The match of the round in grade Five will see Bowraville host Coffs Ex Services. Coffs are virtually just one win away from claiming the flag, but if anyone can run them down it will be Bowraville. The two sides locked in a battle for the lead in grade Six will go head to head when North Beach hosts rivals Nambucca Heads. Fourth place will host third when Urunga host Park Beach in another match of importance in this grade.

Grade Seven's first section will see Sawtell desperate to defeat Bowraville to bring the leaders back to the pack. A Bowra win will put them in an almost unassailable position in this section. In Section Two, Woolgoolga will throw everything they have at section leaders Urunga as a loss will end their hopes of a flag in this grade.

Good Luck to all involved!
