Today (Saturday) is the final matchday in the six-week long Tolchards Devon League four-team competition.
After today’s games the competition becomes a knockout cup.
The big game locally is the derby match at the Maer Ground where Exmouth host Budleigh Salterton.
The visitors are set to field an unchanged side for the fourth game in a row while the Maer men former Devon captain Bob Dawson to play against his former club. Dawson is almost retired these days, but he turned out for the 2nd XI in the recent meeting with Exeter and scored a century.
In Tier Three East Two there’s a right royal scrap going on with regard to which of the four teams goes through to the knockout stages. Clyst St George travel to Exeter II while Exmouth II are in action in Mid Devon at Sandford II.
