The Merlins 1XI have a late pushback at 16:00 in Dundee against Grove Menzieshill 1XI at DISC. The Ladies are still searching for their 1st league win of the season, however are hoping to ride the wave of an excellent cup victory away to Cala last Sunday.

Gordonians 1XI jump on the bus early for a trip down to the capital to take on Erskine Stewarts Melville 1XI at Inverleith playing fields. The boys suffered a tight defeat at the hands of Dunfermline Carnegie last week but will look to put in a performance against a mid-table ESM side. Pushback is 12:30 on Saturday.

No other Merlins or Gordonians teams feature this weekend due to the school holidays.

The Ladies currently look like they may grab a short pocket of sunshine on Saturday afternoon in Dundee, with a 30% chance of a soaking. The gents shall almost certainly need their rain jackets, turning out in a chilly 9 degrees with a good day for the ducks forecast.

Good luck to our flagship teams this weekend, and safe travels to those travelling for hockey and the October holidays!
