On Saturday the 1st XI play host to Watsonians in the CSL Eastern Premier League. Ryan "Red" West returns to Durham School to finish the school year and his exams, and is replaced by Calum "Rowdy" Martin. Daya Singh will be looking to continue his fine form which has returned 23 wickets this season.

Watsonians head for Mannofield off the back of 3 straight league defeats, however the Myreside Men are current Eastern Premier League Champions after league success in 2012, so a tough prospect is in store for the Dons who are looking to bounce back after last weekends 27 run defeat to Arbroath.

The 2nd XI start their busy weekend with a trip to Forfar to face Strathmore. The 2s are riding high in the S&PU this year with 3 wins from 3 but a host of holidays and University committments means it's a much changed side this time out.

The 3rd XI continued their unbeaten run last weekend and have set up a top of the table clash with Bon Accord who are also unbeaten this term. Captain Graeme Johnston is able to call upon last weekend's batting stars Neil Rana & Ashish Mayaker in a bid to take the outright lead in Grade 1.

The 4th XI continued their promotion push with a resounding victory last weekend against 2nd Ellon and are looking for more of the same this weekend as they travel to Kemnay/Kintore. The side's success this year has come in it's blend of youth and experience and welcomes back Scotland Women's captain Abbi Aitken to bolster a strong looking line up.

On Sunday the 2nd XI are in action against Meigle at Mannofield in a match schedule to start at 1pm while the 3rd XI face 2nd St Ronalds in the Aberdeenshire Cup.
