Malone U14's played host to Banbridge in a closely fought encounter at Gibson Park. After Banbridge took an early lead, Malone responded almost immediately. Some heroic goal line defence kept the scores level until the stroke of half time when Banbridge scored to edge ahead 12-7. Into the second half and Banbridge stretched their lead to 19 - 7. However, with a determined never say die attitude Malone scored two late tries tying the game with a converted try with two minutes left to leave the final score 19-19.
