Batting first the Bannsiders slumped to 50 for 5 before in a rearranged batting order Niall McDonnell reached yet another half century with skipper David Cooke also scoring 54 before their side ended with a total of 217 for 8.

The Foxies opening pair of Jason Milligan and Iftikhar Hussain shared in a 100 run partnership however when Scott Campbell was brought into the attack things went horribly wrong for the Foxies with Campbell returning figures of 6 for 23 as the last six wickets fell for just four runs to give the visitors an 88 run victory.

Bready v Glendermott

What a game this should be, quite simple the side that loses the game will be relegated, while the winners will be involved in a play off with the side that finishes second in the Championship.

Bready after their win in their last outing at Eglinton, may be to strong for Gordon Montgomery’s side.

Prediction: Bready.

Donemana v Strabane

Richard Kee’s side have the Faughan Valley Cup final coming up on Sunday and they will want their good form to continue, they have had a good season and but for a few lapses things could even have been better.

Strabane got the win they needed last time out, but their season overall has been one of disappointment, the loss of Decker Curry at the beginning of the season was a big blow.

Prediction: Donemana.

Faughan Valley Cup Final

Coleraine v Donemana

This Twenty/20 final could be a thriller between the league champions and the Senior Cup winners, champions Coleraine will be looking for their third trophy which has been their most successful season in their history.

Donemana are renowned cup winners and they will be going all out in this one however the Bannsiders might be to good.

Prediction: Coleraine.

Sperrin Springs Cup Final

Creevedonnell v Newbuildings

This game is sure to be close and although the Championship side may start this game as very slight favourites, Newbuildings will fancy their chances of causing an upset.

The Waterside men have had Jason Brown doing well for them this season.

Prediction: Creevedonnell.
