Div 3 Team, Captained by Brendan Simon played at Phillip Island GC against Meeniyan GC and received a 1-6 pounding with only the experienced hand, Bruce Hutton serving up enough curry to his opponent, for a win.
Div 5 Team, Captained by Denis Wallace, came home with a 4-3 win over Wonthaggi GC after Nick Hill seized the advantage on the 20th hole to secure his hard fought game.
