Then there were eight... almost

The last of the 'preliminary stages' of the Scottish Junior Women's Championships ran this morning. We started off with eleven teams, in two sections, and by the end of this morning's game we should have just eight to continue forward. But it's not worked out as simply as that.

Four have come out of Section A: Lauren Gray, Anna Sloan, Mhairi Baird and Lauren Baxter. We lose the Rebecca Steven and Louise Mansion teams.

In the other section three teams are clear - Jennifer Dodds, Gina Aitken and Hannah Fleming. Helen King and Naomi Whyte will contest a tiebreaker.

You can find this morning's linescores and the standings here.
