The Warburton Bowls Club recorded two solid victories in the second week of the Pennant Season.
Warburton 1 hosted Boronia 1 and controlled all four rinks to win the maximum 16 points, 88 shots to 52, to follow up their encouraging first-round performance.
Rink scores were as follows: S. Lord 20/ 16; T. Appleton 19/ 13; C. Neale 27/ 12 and C. Lord 22/ 11.
The Burras top side looks forward to continuing this form away this weekend against Upwey Tecoma 1.
Warburton 2 played Ringwood 2 away in breezy conditions and despite winning two rinks, went down overall again in another disappointing start to the season, 63 shots to 86.
Rink scores were G. Lewis 4/ 34; P. Summers 18/ 12; F. Wagenaar 22/ 17 and M. Reynolds 19/ 23. They look to improve this weekend against Heatherdale 1 at home.
The Midweek Competition commenced its season with a strong performance at home against Upwey Tecoma 1. They won all rinks to record a big 82 shots to 27 victory.
Rink scores were as follows: S. Lord 23/ 11; G. Walsh 27/ 10 and R. McKail 32/ 6.
They play Heathmont 3 away this week as they look to continue their fine start to the season.
