Isis 2 started as clear underdogs against Basingstoke 1 who have only lost two matches this season in their OKA matches. Basingstoke were missing several of their regular first team, and Isis 2 were missing Dom, Nick, and Lesley.

It was a low scoring first half, with determined defending from Isis stopping Basingstoke from using their good long shots as much as usual. Despite this Vlad was able to score two excellent shots from distance. However, with Justin's long shot becoming a regular feature, and a cheeky turn and shoot from Martin, Isis were enexpectedly ahead 5 - 4 at half time as a result of coach claire's plan working exactly as hoped.

The second half saw Basingstoke improving their shooting and they quickly drew level and then ahead. However, Isis were also improving and with several long shots from Justin, Claire, and other, drew level with 5 minutes to go. No further goals meant 5 minutes of golden goal in a repeat of the OKA cup final.

After a few nervy minutes, with several Basinsgtoke shots almost going in, Isis were awarded a penalty, but missed! It seemed penalties were going to decide the game, but an excellent long shot by Latoya meant Isis 2 had won the OKA Plate!!

The OKA team travelled to Cardiff on Saturday for a double-header against two of the three Welsh teams.

The first game ended with an excellent 14 - 12 win over a strong Cardiff Dragons team.

The second game didn't go as smoothly, but was still a good win by 15 - 7 over Cardiff University.

Not sure of the final scores, but Isis 2 had a comprehensive win over Didcot 1.

In the final game of the evening Abingdon2 and City2 fought a hard and very clean match, the closeness of which wasn't truly reflected in the final result of 10 - 5 to Abingdon2.
