Marton will defending the Challenge Shield for Senior against Hunterville under lights on Friday night.

Marton will defending the Challenge Shield for Senior against Hunterville under lights on Friday night.

Tasman Tanning Premier rugby takes a break tomorrow with the gap between the first and second round of matches, however there are a couple of very important clashes in the Senior grade.

Undefeated table leaders Kelso Hunterville will be keen to get their hands on some silverware as the Stihl Shop Wanganui Challenge Shield is brought to their ground this evening for a night game with third placed Speirs Food Marton.

Marton have already lost and regained the Shield this season as it has traversed through four clubrooms.

At Waverley tomorrow, both home team Border, sitting fourth, and fifth placed Counties will be looking to strengthen their position in the Top 6 with less than a handful of games left until the split between the Championship and Consolation groups.

It's an identical equation for sixth-placed Seales Winslow Pirates when they travel to play table neighbours Utiku Old Boys in Taihape.
