The large number of draws - probably as a result of trying to ensure that pairings were evenly matched - meant that the winners were determined by the few decisive games. The result was in doubt until very close to the end with a number of teams in contention. Yeovil, having gained an early advantage with Binoy Manimala's win, sealed the result late on when Darren Freeman beat John Harbour in a game when John had held the advantage. Mike Waddington squeezed out a win against Allan Pleasants on top board in a game that was close for much of the time. Last to finish was Ian Clark and Mads Bowden with Mads having a bishop and pawn against three pawns.
