Lisburn progressed to the next round with an exciting last hole victory over City of Derry at Moyola Park.

Amy Jeffers and Matt Lyness won the top match on the 17th green. A few minutes later Colin Reid and Valerie Rooney won their match three and two. City of Derry won the last two matches and the outcome depended on the match involving Trevor Murphy and Daphne Houston.

It was level on the final tee at the long par five. City of Derry were in the trees after two shots while Lisburn were on the fairway. Lisburn were short in four but Daphne chipped to four feet. City of Derry holed out in seven leaving Trevor a four foot putt for victory. When the ball disappeared, Lisburn had won 3–2 and advanced to the last eight.
