(The Big Twanks win 12-0 on aggregate)

The first team through to the Semi Final stage were The Big Twanks. After their whitewash last week, all they needed was one frame to secure passage through, which Ali Munro managed in the first frame, giving The Big Twanks the 12-0 overall result, and they will now play SP3 in the semi-finals.

Vic 8-Ball 1-3 The Bloody Bastards

(The Bloody Bastards win 12-3 on aggregate)

After a 9-2 win last week, The Bloody Bastards needed just three frames against Vic 8-Ball to also qualify for the semi-finals. Vic 8-Ball did win the first frame to threaten a comeback, but wins for Paul Harker, Kelly Byfield and Kiera Fitzsimmons got the job done, winning 3-1 on the night, and 12-3 on aggregate. They will now play Shoot To Thrill in the semi-finals.

Shoot To Thrill 6-0 Prem Team In The Making

(Shoot To Thrill win 12-5 on aggregate)

Despite the first leg ending in a closely-fought 6-5 win for Shoot To Thrill, they made easy work of the second leg, winning 6-0 on the night to win 12-5 overall. Owen Garland, Liam King, John Massingham, Jeremy Collins, Paul Seastram and Ed McBrearty all won a frame on the night, and will be feature in the semi-final against The Bloody Bastards.

Shoot Wonky 5-7 SP3

(SP3 win 12-5 on 11 on aggregate)

The final match was the closest of all, with both sides winning a leg 6-5, meaning the match went down to a one-frame decider, the first time this has happened since 2018. SP3 opened up with the first two frames, but Shoot Wonky, leading 6-5 from the first leg, won the next five without reply to take an 11-7 lead overall. But SP3 came back strong, as a second win on the night for Ben Collins was one of three singles framesin a row they won. This meant that when Teresa Collins and Taylor Christy won the scotch doubles frame too, the match was level at 11-11, meaning the captains had to pick a player each for a one-frame decider. This saw Shoot Wonky's Nathan McCleary take on Adam Green of SP3. And it was Adam who won the match in style, winning the lag and then taking out a break and dish to wrap up the 7-5 win on the night and the epic comeback for SP3.
