Home win for Longwarry
Fourth placed Longwarry hosted third placed Trafalgar in division one bowls on Saturday.
Fortunately the match was played at the "Dome", with the wintery conditions halting plenty of outdoor games.
The Longwarry team took an early lead and went on to win three of the four rinks for a 22-shot overall win.
As a result, they jumped to third on the ladder.
Unfortunately, division three was washed out and division six had a bye. It was great to see them having a spirited practice game between themselves instead.
