Round 9 - Dublin vs Chisinau

Chisinau Admins inactive - highly unlikely that they will accept the match challenge! All Chisinau matches lost by forfeit. This will be a forfeit win for Dublin - TBC on July 2.

All nine rounds are underway. It's been disappointing to see a few clubs in the Division not fully engaging with the tournament. But this shouldn't detract from a very competitive fight for the top two places. Dhaka and Oxford currently sit in the hot seats, but Leeds are hard on their heels. The head-to-head matchups in play between the top three make this the most exciting of the five Div 4 leagues this season.

Thank you, Admins.
