One semi-final was an all Tathra affair with Deane Payne, Rob McCudden, Phil Burns and John Chalker winning their match-up with Justin Smith, Paul Alker, Dick Hart and Gerry Lay, 19-11.
The other semi-final was an all Merimbula nail-biter.
Frog Croker, Tony Shaw, Norm Pinne and Jeffrey Martin eventually accounted for the team of Ricky Holt, Paul Stewart, Andy Katen and Heemi Nukutarawhiti in a tight game, 24-23.
The final was a high-quality game, with both teams keeping the vocal crowd entertained.
Chalker’s team took the early lead and were never headed, the Tathra side eventually winning 25-12, a score Chalker said wasn’t reflective of the quality of the game.
