In division six, a travelling Violet Town outfit clinched a thrilling 14-59 to 2-58 victory over Shepparton Golf to consolidate its top four placing.

Despite Brian McInneny’s quartet romping to an eight-shot win for Golf in the first rink, Violet Town came home with a wet sail to trump the host and keep it rooted at the ladder’s foot.

News photographer Rechelle Zammit strolled the greens to snap the players in action.
