Both matches will see who progresses to the 2018 Tony Tamplin Grand Final. Good luck to all teams involved.

Belmont 16′ Sailing Club No.2 and Mayfield Bowling Club No.2 also progressed and will play the compatriots Belmont 16′ Sailing Club No.1 and Mayfield Bowling Club No.1 respectively in the semi-finals. Good luck to all teams.

Congratulations to the Kahibah Sports Canons who showed their class by taking out the 2018 Tony Tamplin Minor Premiership. The Cannons are on an unprecedented winning streak of 17 consecutive matches not having lost a match since the 16th of May. Please find the draw below for the make-up of the finals. Home teams remember that you need to provide markers for all your matches. Good luck to all teams on the finals. The order of play for the finals will be draw out of the hat and each match goes on as soon as any table becomes available just as in the group stages. As always home teams get the right to choose which tables the first 2 (or 3 for 3 table venues) home side players play on. Home teams mark matches except when it’s a 3 table venue and in that instance the away player/s not playing should assist with marking.
