- Each match will comprise one leg, the home team being decided by random draw at the draw for each round.

Thursday League Division One Knockout Cup

Cathays Cons sprang an upset in the Thursday 1 Team KO final, with a 261-148 win over favourites and league champions Canton C. The Cathays side started strongly, John Hicks beating Alyn Harries 69-37 in a scrappy frame to establish a strong early advantage. Alex Donne pulled back 6 points in frame 2 with a narrow 60-54 win over Leon Patricolo. However, from then on it was all about Cathays Cons, spurred on by a strong travelling support, who pulled further ahead in frame 3, Mike Kinman beating Mike Stokes 68-17. In frame 4, Dave Standage beat Steve King 70-34 to make the deficit 113 points, and Canton C conceded the match without the final frame being played.

Thursday League Division Two Knockout Cup

The Thursday 2 final was won by Potters Bar, who put in a fine display to crush Uni B's hopes. Dave Stratford opened up with a 71-58 win over Layton Brooks, who had knocked in a 36 break. The scoreline could have been so different had it not been for 3 consecutive in-offs for Brooks. The gap really opened up in frame 2, as Chris Crooks defeated Kieran Baxter 66-27. The trend continued in frame 3, as Paul Thomas beat Dom Osborne 54-38. Mike Evans had chances to close the gap in frame 4, but couldn't take them, and eventually came worse off, losing out 55-38 to Shane Virgin. Unlike the other final, the final frame was played, but Neil Fairbrother, needing to win by 86 points, actually took the largest defeat of the night, losing out 76-20 to Jason Leach.
