(5-4; 14-7; 18-8; 20-15)
Dyffryn celebrated their first win of the season, although they had to withstand a strong finish from the Mavericks.
The bottom side edged the first 5-4, but then dominated the second 9-3 to lead 14-7 at the midway stage.
After winning quarter three 4-1, Dyffryn were 10 goals ahead. Menai battled back well to take the last 7-2, but had left themselves far too much to do to affect the result.

Penygroes Primos 24-25 Pwllheli Panthers
(6-7; 11-12; 18-18; 24-25)
What a match this was!
The teams were hard to separate throughout, Panthers winning the first quarter 7-6 before the second finished 5-5 and Primos took the third 7-6 to make it all-square entering the closer.
And the Pwllheli side just took it by seven goals to six to seal the tightest of victories.
