It takes ten rubbers to make a 5–5 draw, but Greenleys Knights and Leighton Buzzard Flashmans appeared determined to make several of them last as long as possible. One fifth-game doubles, two recoveries from two games down and a singles treble later, neither team could claim six. The other results were clearer — though one needed an important footnote.

Official MKTTL scorecardMilton Keynes CavaliersGreat Brickhill Foxes
Great Brickhill Foxes beat Milton Keynes Cavaliers 8–2, but this score needs reading carefully: three of Foxes' singles points were awarded because Cavaliers had an absent player. Sergiu Dubenco won two played singles and received one award; Marlon Fearon and Steven Tovey each had one played win and one award. Cavaliers' Chris Paddon earned both home points, including a 13–11 fifth against Tovey, before Dubenco turned a 0–2 deficit against him into a 13–11 decider.
Official MKTTL scorecardThe biggest number belonged to Foxes; the best contest belonged to Knights and Flashmans. Hein Myo Latt's four-point involvement in that draw takes the week's individual honours.
