Division 1

It was a decisive weekend at the top of Division 1 as Western 3rd XI were crowned champions after a convincing 7–1 victory over Giffnock, with Dougie Simpson netting a hat-trick. The result secures the title with three games to spare and ensures the John S. Dick Trophy remains at Auchenhowie for another season.

At the other end of the table, Hillhead 5th XI boosted their survival hopes with an important win over Clydesdale 4th XI, with Graeme Etheridge scoring the standout goal of the match.
Rottenrow produced a strong comeback performance to defeat Helensburgh 5–2, overturning a two-goal deficit, with Chris Lawson continuing his excellent season by taking his tally to 13 goals.
Elsewhere, Clydesdale 3rd XI ran out comfortable 9–0 winners over Glasgow University 3rd XI.

Division 2

Division 2 delivered a remarkable set of scorelines, with two matches ending 15–0.
League leaders Uddingston 3rd XI demonstrated their promotion credentials with a 15–0 win over Strathclyde University 2nd XI, with Hunter Borland scoring four times.
Dumfries matched that scoreline against Ayr, with Ryan Johnston netting five goals to move onto 20 for the season, putting him joint top of the division’s scoring charts.

In a crucial result at the bottom end, Western 4th XI defeated Kelburne 4th XI 4–0 to give themselves breathing space in the relegation battle.
Meanwhile, promotion rivals Rottenrow 2nd XI and GHK shared the points at the National Hockey Centre, leaving both tied on 31 points. However, GHK’s superior defensive record keeps them in the crucial promotion place.

Division 3


Only one match survived the weekend in Division 3 as several fixtures fell victim to postponements. The lone game saw Hillhead 8th XI and Giffnock play out a 2–2 draw, in an evenly contested encounter that ensured both sides left with a share of the points.
