Heathfield finally edged past Aylesford Bulls in a closely fought contest and thus secured the second promotion slot in London SE3. Given the significance of the fixture it was played in a cup atmosphere where the result was all-important and bonus points, although available, were not critical.

Both sides scored two tries so it might be thought that goal kicking was decisive – in fact it was the strong Heathfield scrummage that finally emerged as the deciding factor.
