With the final round of league play this Saturday the BCB announce that in the event that teams finish on equal points in their division the following tie-breakers will apply.

 

1.      If 2 teams finish on equal points the winner of their respective head to head game will determine the ultimate winner.

2.      If 3 teams finish on equal points the league will be won by the team with the highest team batting average.

 

In the East Zone, the game between St. George's and St. David's will determine the winner of that division and they will play in the first semi-final on Sunday at NSC.
