The final round of games before the start of the 125^th Anniversary Cricket Festival next week sees Grade 1 leaders Bon Accord back in action and strong favourites to consolidate their position against Queens Cross at Harlaw, while Cults with home advantage will also fancy their chances at home to Banchory, and Kintore will hope to continue their recent recovery of form ahead of their foray on Sunday into the UK-wide rounds of the Villages Cup by taking points off a strong Ellon side.

In Grade 2 leaders St Ronald should prove too strong for Caledonian, while Methlick will also fancy their chances against Crescent, and Fraserburgh face the longest journey of the day as they travel to meet Crathie.
