The quartet of games represent the final Academy action of 2024, with teams heading into the mid-season break following this afternoon, emerging once again on the 8 January 2025.
Before then, Myerscough host BMet and Manchester go to SGS in the EABL, whilst Copleston host Barking across both leagues.
We take a look at all the action below.
Leaders Myerscough College (4-0) can add not just one but two wins to their EABL record this afternoon when they host BMet City of Birmingham Rockets (2-3).
The pair will play their regular match up in the North West, whilst also making up the time remaining on their mid-October meeting in the Midlands, which was abandoned in the third quarter due to condensation on the court.
Myerscough were leading 59-48 when the game was originally halted, suggesting they could be in the box seats to improve to 6-0 by the time the day is out.
That means Manchester Magic (4-1) probably won't be able to keep pace with their North West neighbours, since they only have the conventional three points up for grabs.
They travel to take on SGS College (1-5), who lost the reverse of this fixture 122-48 back in October and haven't picked up a win in over two months.
The South's only game pits undefeated Barking Abbey (4-0) against Copleston High School (1-5).
Barking have had no problem seeing off all comers so far, leaving them as the conference's only undefeated team.
Given the small conference size and the number of teams that make the post-season, Copleston are both tied for last place and also tied for the fourth and final playoff spot. They're without a win in their last four outings, however, so today's contest will be no doubt be a tough one for the Suffolk programme.
Myerscough College vs BMet City of Birmingham Rockets
SGS College vs Manchester Magic
Copleston High School vs Barking Abbey
Today's only WEABL action pits an unbeaten side against a winless one as Barking Abbey (0-3) head to Copleston High School (8-0).
Defending conference champions Copleston have raced through their schedule in the first half of the season, seeing off everyone they've faced to sit just three games away from a second consecutive unbeaten regular season.
Considering Copleston claimed the first leg of this match up 93-29 in East London, it's hard to look past anything but a home win. That would then mean only the remaining games against City of London Academy - Southwark (home) and Itchen College (away) stand between coach Drane's side and another helping of regular season perfection.
If Barking do manage to overcome the odds and steal the road win, they'd be able to head into 2025 in possession of the fourth and final playoff place.
