It is around this time of the year that we publish our first mid-season check point for the Open Competitions. Allowing for a few stray scorecards the tables for the 14 Divisions are accurate up to 9th June [with many updated to 16th]
The requirement that all games in D1-D4 be refixed has clearly borne fruit as there has only been two lost games [i.e. refix also weather affected] across the four divisions. Despite the weather most leagues are getting through their fixtures except for D3 which for some reason has played far fewer matches than anyone else.

There are 12 teams who have yet to lose a league match. In D14 Leinster VII and Mullingar III are unbeaten but haven’t played very many matches. Phoenix IV are top of D9 with four wins and a NR. YMCA IV are still undefeated in D8 and top the table. Neither Merrion V or Clontraf IV [D7] or Phoenix III or Knockharley [D6] have lost a match yet in the league.
As we move to leagues determined by points rather than percentages we find YMCA with 2/2 in D3, Malahide 6/6 and Cork County with 3/4 [one NR] in D2 and Merrion 7/7 in D1.
The teams with the highest percentage are Leinster VII [D14] and Terenure II at 96% [the latter with only two matches played, including one NR], followed by Phoenix IV [D9] with 91%.
At the other end of the tables Clontarf VI, Civil Service IV [D14], Bagenalstown II [D12], North County V and Leinster VI [D11], Leinster V and Mullingar II [D9], Dundalk V [D8], Balbriggan II [D7], North Kildare [D6], Pembroke III [D4], and Civil Service and The Hills II [D3] have yet to record a league win this year.
