In the Open Series, Russia clung on to their lead, but by only half a VP from Poland. In the big match of the day, Russia defeated the champions, Italy, by 21-9. Italy, however, are still handily placed. The big news is the performance of Greece, who are in third place as we approach the half-way point.

In the Womens Series, the gold and silver medallists from Malta - Austria and England (it was GB in Malta) - are tied for the lead. There is a small gap, then come France, Poland and Germany. Israel's 24-6 Round 7 win over Germany was the result of the day.

France 1, the reigning champions, have moved into the lead in the Senior Teams, but six teams are within 10 VPs of them. Congratulations to Malta, who moved off the bottom with a 24-6 victory against Portugal.

The Transnational Ladies Teams Cup, will be completed today.
