Playoffs – 18/03/2023

Photos

Doncaster made a strong showing on the first weekend of the playoffs, finishing second in a field of five, the lower two likely to be relegated to Division 2 next year. However we cannot rest on our laurels, with one further week to go. One disappointing aspect was the number of athletes registering for an event, but not turning up. We lost 100 points for each non-appearance.

Athletes to score more than 1000 points include:
