Trafalgar had no midweek pennant game on Tuesday, as it was Melbourne Cup Day.
The familiar midweek routine gave way to the public holiday, leaving the club's Saturday sides to carry Trafalgar's pennant results for the week.
Four Trafalgar teams took to the greens on Saturday for round four of weekend pennant, recording two wins and two losses.
The results were close across the board, with each match decided by eight shots or fewer. Divisions one and five brought home the wins, while divisions three and seven were narrowly beaten.
Division one produced a strong result against Morwell, with Trafalgar finishing ahead 82/74.
The eight-shot margin gave the side a valuable win and made it the highest scoring Trafalgar result of the day. The team's effort set a positive tone for the club's Saturday campaign.
Division five also secured the points, overcoming Boolarra 61/55.
Trafalgar was six shots in front at the finish, another close contest that went the club's way. The result meant two Trafalgar teams celebrated wins, each doing enough across the match to hold off their opponents.
The other two divisions were just as competitive, but the final shots favoured the opposition.
Division three lost 72/64 to Morwell, an eight-shot difference.
In division seven, Trafalgar went down 44/40 to Thorpdale and District. That four-shot margin was the closest result involving a Trafalgar team on Saturday.
Across the four matches, the scorelines showed a round of tight competition.
Trafalgar's winning margins were six and eight shots, while the losses were by four and eight. With no large gaps on the scoreboard, each contest remained within reach, and small differences separated the teams at the finish.
Every side contributed to a competitive day for Trafalgar, and the narrow margins provide plenty for the teams to build on as the season continues.
