Wednesday 28th August. NFWBA Ladies Team Away versus Milford on Sea (postponed from 20th August). Despite losing this postponed match, the 2 points earned, away from home, confirms the Ringwood Ladies as League B champions, 2024. Rinks 1 - 1. Shots 37 - 32. Points 4 - 2.

Thursday 29th August. B&DWBA Ladies Team at Home versus Wimborne Swallows. The 2 points gained in this penultimate match confirms the Ringwood Ladies as Division 2 Champions for 2024.

Saturday 31st August. B&DBA Mixed B Team Away versus Fordingbridge Flyers. A poor result for the B Team. They will need to play very well, against the league leaders next week, in their last game to have any chance of avoiding relegation. Rinks 2 - 0. Shots 57 - 28. Points 6 - 0.

Saturday 31st August. B&DBA Mixed 1st Team at Home versus Argyll. Another good win for the 1st Team.

Points 8 - 2.

Saturday 31st August. B&DBA Mixed A Team Away versus Argyll B. Another great performance places the A Team equal on points with 2nd place Milford on Sea. Another good performance in next weeks last game could result in promotion for the A Team. Rinks 1 - 2. Shots 48 - 63. Points 2 - 8.
