Rained-Out Baywide Cup Eliminates A Further Three Contenders

Posted: Monday, 3 December 2018

Baywide Cup Round 6

A second consecutive weekend of Baywide Cup matches being washed out, without a ball being bowled, eliminated the slim theoretical chances of Carrus Mount Maunganui, Bayleys Central Indians and Bond & Co Tauranga Boys College of making the title decider in two weeks time.

Eves Realty Greerton, sit at the top of the standings are in the box seat and are guaranteed a place in the final, to be fought out by the two top qualifiers from round robin play.

Greerton will meet either Element IMF Cadets or New World Te Puke, who sit in second and third spots respectively heading into next Saturdays (8 December 2018) last qualifying round.

The scenario is Greerton will host the Baywide Cup final, at Pemberton Park, if they beat Tauranga Boys College next weekend. Cadets can take the other finals spot but must topple arch-rivals Mount Maunganui. New World Te Puke still has a chance to reach the final, but they have to beat Central Indians and rely on Mount Maunganui dispatching Cadets.
