All matches were played simultaneously on Saturday (3pm). Grain men have really improved since the arrival of former Dynamos and Shooting Stars midfielder Andrew Chifamba and former Shooting Stars assistant coach Darlington Dodo.
Both Grain Tigers and Blue Jets are the teams to watch next year that is if they keep the same form they are in at the moment.

They have now dropped 8 valuable points in their last 3 outings, they first lost by a goal to nil to Turnall in their rescheduled fixture before loosing 2 nil away to title chasing Douglas Warriors.
Kurai United drew nil-all with Felfar Stars before their home crowd to keep their survival hopes alive while Felfar themselves are now definitely Division Two bound next year.
Meanwhile the Northern Region Board has resolved to have the top 10 teams play all the remaining matches simultaneously on Saturday to avoid any pressure on others who would have not played on Saturday. All the referees will rotate in all three provinces – John S Remba
