On Saturday, Newtown O.G. defeated Handwick by 14 points to 9 after a hard-fought, bustling game. The closest game of the day was that between Wellington East O.G. (7) and Wesley (5). Play was on the defensive most of the time and: neither set of forwards was shooting very accurately •"

Kia Ora, playing one short in centre, controlled play throughout their game with St. Patrick's, whose forwards rarely had the opportunity of gaining easy shooting position. They won by 21 points to 10.
