In section one ladies, Wodonga Larrikins navigated early trouble against Thurgoona Jade before going onto triumph.

Janae Piergrosse, Kendall Oates, Sandra Allen and Rhonda Wilson were solid throughout, with Alison Barrett and Rebecca Zanin best for Jade.

The Walla combination of Judy Hueske, Toots Walkerden, Annette Schroeter and Maree Seidel had all the answers against Uiver Park in the section two finale, with Brenda Huckstepp battling hard for her team.

SPD, with Mark Shanahan, Jade Culph and Lewis Ahern firing from the outset, was never seriously threatened in its account of Wodonga Bulldogs in section one men.

After losing the first stanza, Forest Hill Wombats were all business, going onto defeat SPD Black in section two.

Graeme Wurtz, Ashley Wurtz, Paul Frankle and Hayden McIntosh combined brilliantly all day with Shane Mumberson and Matthew Graham good early for SPD Black.

Outstanding form all afternoon by Andrew Lyell was key in Wodonga Pirates’ victory over Forest Hill Bulldogs in section three.

He received strong support from Craig Farrer, Leigh Gadd and Paul Tamborini, while Wayne Bodycott claimed two sets for Bulldogs.

Section four saw Wodonga Lions recover from a mid-afternoon deficit to defeat Wodonga Doves four sets to two.

James Plested, Liam McPherson and Blair Edwards finished strongly, while Abbey Quinlan played well for Doves.

SPD Yellow had the better of the close rubbers early before completing a four sets to two victory over Lavington Jolly Jokers in section five.

Ryley Miller, Isaac Smith and Scott Soulsby were in terrific touch for the winners, while Daniel Sobolewski, Jeremy and Lucas Karthauser fought hard for Jokers.
