Updates from the B-Division

In the men’s B-Division, Group B has a clear leader, France, who are undefeated on five wins so far. A sequence of results, including the latest, a 10-4 victory over Portugal, makes them the first team to qualify for the play-offs.

Behind them are Latvia and Netherlands, each on four wins and one loss. At the foot, and in danger of being relegated, are Belgium and Slovenia, who are both without a first victory.

Group A is led by Wales, on four wins and one loss, following their 9-7 win over England, who now slip to third place. Between these two, Finland are in second place. Estonia are at the foot of Group A, still looking for their first win.

The women’s B-Division round-robin programme is two-thirds completed, and after six sessions of play, Lithuania remain undefeated at the top of the rankings. In their most recent game, they beat Austria by 7-4.
