Division 3 were victorious claiming a solid 12 shot win, while Division 2 fell just short at Rich River by three shots 54-57.
Division 2 had a terrific tussle against Rich River with a win, a draw and a loss on the three rinks.
Tony Tonta’s rink had a solid win 20-12, Craig Taylor and team featured in a 16-all draw, while the Linda Harris combination succumbed 18-29 on their rink.
Despite the narrow loss, Division 2 have still made a solid start to the season and look forward to consolidating their ladder position next week when they meet near neighbours Deniliquin Bowling Club.
The Division 3 Diggers claimed their second win of the season at home against Lockington.
They already sit in fifth position on the ladder, just outside the top three.
The Diggers defeated their visitors on two rinks with John Wilson’s winning 28-17, Neville Austin’s 21-19 and Ron Marchetti’s going down by the barest margin 17-18.
Next week RSL will face ladder leaders Moama Green in what will be a great early season test.
