Mundulla had a slow start with Keith coming out and capitalising on their centre passes and turnovers.

Clark and Todd take top honours

Another absorbing day of Bridge@Bowls took place last Thursday when 24 members battled it out in the pleasant surrounds of the Naracoorte Bowling Club.

Marjorie has been in the placings for consecutive weeks, so that is most certainly a job well done. Second and third positions for N/S were filled by Jill Jacob/Jill Perkins and Christine McDonald/Helen Cox.
