Teams 
After a week off, Bideford Chiefs are gearing up for a challenging clash against the formidable South Molton, led by former Bideford player Ben Gatehouse. Expect a thrilling match, as both teams have represented North Devon with pride in the league this season.
South Molton narrowly lost to high-flying Exeter Saracens last weekend, but not without putting up a strong fight. They stayed competitive throughout and were a constant threat to Sarries in the closing minutes. As for the Chiefs, they’ve been in fine form, with only one league loss to their name, following a solid performance at Withy last week.
The selection process will be a tough one this week, after some standout performances from the Quins in their impressive narrow loss to Wadebridge Seconds. However, with a few players unavailable (Ben Short and Dave Evans-Pearce away), some tricky decisions lie ahead. The front row, in particular, showed great strength in the last outing, and the Colts also put in a strong performance.
The Quins will look to maintain their momentum in the league as they travel to face South Molton at their home ground.
