WITH St Just finally clinching the ECB Cornwall Premier League title on Saturday with a six wicket win at Redruth, the focus now switches for the fight for survival at the bottom of the table.
Four teams are in danger – bottom club Redruth, Camborne, Callington and Newquay.
Redruth look in the greatest danger and face a daunting trip to runners-up Werrington, while Camborne finish the season at relegation rivals Newquay and Callington, who are only two points better off, have a tough final game at champions St Just.
Redruth 106, St Just 107-4
ST JUST have enjoyed some remarkable successes over the last decade or so but the landing of the 'quadruple' must surely go down as one of the highlights.
Having claimed the Vinter, WT Edwards and Premier 50/50 Cups in July, they clinched their first Premier League title since 2009, with a game to spare. They have led the table from day one.
Redruth, meanwhile, only took three points to move back to the foot. They lost a toss they must have desperately hoped to have won and, after being put in, reached 31 for one before collapsing to 106 all out.
Steve Kevern made 19 and Harry Bolland 17. Mark George took five for 21 and Justin Stephens four for 29. Harry Medhurst then made 34 after Neil Curnow and Mark George had gone for 26.
Fittingly, stalwart Gary Thomas hit the winning boundary to end on 29 with Stephens undefeated on 20. Shakil Ahmed took three for 37.
Werrington 253, Camborne 133
WERRINGTON gained a revenge win at Roskear, by the large margin of 120 runs. The home defeat earlier in the season was one of the reasons they ended up chasing St Just throughout the campaign.
Five Werrington batsmen passed 25 in their 253 all out. Sam Pooley struck three times as they slipped to 73 for four with Nick Ward making 26.
In a recovery Paul Smith made 37, Adam Hodgson 39 and Nick Lawson 51 with Tony Goodin last man out for 27. Nick King took four for 42 and Sam Pooley three for 52.
Camborne did pick up a valuable five bowling points, however.
They then collapsed for 80 for three to 133 all out, with just under six overs remaining; Simon Hosking hit 29 and Matt Rowe 20. Alex Smeeth (3-27) and Sam Hockin (3-21) took the top order wickets.
St Austell 168, Grampound Road 152
A YEAR ago St Austell just survived relegation in the final overs of the season, but it's a different story this time around at Wheal Eliza.
They've won three and tied one of their last five games and will finish a very creditable fifth in the table.
On Saturday eight home batsmen got double figures led by Andrew Libby with 30, Matt Ellison (28) and Taylor Williams with 20.
Their 168 all out came in the 51st over. Christian Purchase took four for 32 and Jeffery Vandersay four for 38 from 16 overs.
After David Hoskings (33) and Curtis Dalby (21) got the Road to a promising 76 for one, the innings fell away disappointingly.
Libby did the damage taking six for 43 from 17 overs. Josh Sharpe made 20 as the end came in the 43rd over.
Newquay 90, Truro 91-5
TRURO strengthened their chances of a top three finish with this five wicket home win.
Meanwhile Newquay have a 16 point cushion going into the final weekend and, barring a remarkable set of results, that should be enough for their survival.
After being put in Newquay's Adam Cocking made 22 and Martin Pearce 16 to get them to 44 for two. They struggled from that point however with Tom Sharp taking four for 16 and Neil Ivamy two for 17.
Marc Lewis removed openers Joe Crane and Michael Harding plus Martin Pearce at a cost of 39 runs. Pearce (4-46) had the home side struggling somewhat at 45 for four, with Liam Lombard and Tom Sharp both going early.
However, opener Scott Harvey remained undefeated on 38 and Kelvin Snell made 18 to secure victory with 50 overs to spare.
Falmouth 188-8, Callington 153
FALMOUTH ensured their survival with this 32 run win at Moores Park to leave Callington with a nervy last day trip to the champions, St Just, to ensure Premier League cricket next year.
After being put in the visitors got to 119 for two with Mark Johnson making 39, Arup Revandkar 38 and Antony Angove 23.
Callington skipper Matt Robins bowled his side back into the game taking six for 52 from 15 overs. Stefan Churcher's 36 no got the total to 88 for eight.
Callington got off to a bad start with Glyn Furnival removing James Long, Adrian Robins and Peter Tancock for ducks. Matt Robins held the innings together to make 77 off 102 balls, before being ninth out at 133. Number 9 Andrew Jones with 14 was next best. Furnival ended with six for 50 and Revandkar three for 22.
