Veterans League
We have a Division 3 v Division 5 semi-final line-up in the Sub-Team KO competition after Friday's quarter-final matches with two teams from each division making the split. The closest of the four Friday matches saw Division 5 strugglers New Mill 'B' beat Marsh United 'B' of Division 4 by a 7 points aggregate difference (142-135). Their reward is a semi-final meeting with Division 3 outfit, Outlane who had a surprisingly straight-forward win over the leaders from Division 4, Lindley Lib 'B'.
There was another surprise in the other half of the draw when the Division 5 leaders, Milnsbridge 'B' went down comprehensively to Broad Oak 'B' from the same division by a 26-point margin (150-124). The remaining tie saw Division 3 relegation threatened Huddersfield Recreation Club overcome Thongsbridge 'B' from Division 4 by a clearcut 24-points margin.
The four semi-finalists have all won this title before with Huddersfield Recreation Club being the most recent of those when lifting the title in 2021. The teams will meet on Friday 18 August on neutral greens still to be announced.
