Second-placed North Down won a comfortable 5-1 at home over Bangor YM III. Ballywalter Rec III won 5-3 away to Ards Rangers III to put some distance between themselves and the bottom two. Newtown Forest won an impressive 5-1 at home over Agape to keep the pressure on the top of the table. Bryansburn Rangers III won 3-2 at home over Bangor Rangers III.

In the Billy Allen Memorial Shield, Castlereagh Colts knocked out the 82nd with a 9-1 win. Comber Rec III lost 2-1 to neighbours Comber Star to exit the cup.
