Saturday, November 2nd … Weekend Pennant
A1, A3, B1, and B3 matches played last weekend were all shortened due to the wet weather, but as they had played enough ends to obtain a result, points were awarded. Poor old A2 travelled to Wodonga and played a complete match, only to find out later that their match was the only one in the competition to play. Although they won, no points could be given, but the moral victory was certainly theirs.
A1 … YMGCR 67 defeated Kiewa 50
J Le Fevre 13/11, L Spencer 17/15, R Irvine 24/10, A Miles 13/14.
