Swifts started strongly against Orioles A, winning two early penalty corners but despite their midfield players dominating they couldn't capitalise. And it was Orioles who grabbed the points with second half goals from Maxine Collins and Mary-Ellen Jackson.

In other games, Longtails A tied 2-2 with Bluebirds A, Swifts B drew 0-0 with Bluebirds B, and Cardinals B and Orioles B shared the spoils 1-1.
