* The national controller ruled that Warks board 11 was ineligible, the result erased, and Warks deducted a point for fielding an ineligible player. Warks board 11 was allowed to play in the Midlands u100 team competition with an estimated grade of 60 and Warks have appealed against the national controller's decision on the grounds that the national rules do not specify which (MCCU/national) controller. The ECF appeals committee ruled against Warwickshire and the final result is shown above.
