Following washouts at most grounds last weekend and following downpours again on Saturday morning, a number of games were able to go ahead in a reduced one-day format.
Tathra took the crease at Merimbula after getting through just eight overs last weekend and pressed on to finish all-out for 157 runs.
The Knights were able to claim a few cheap wickets, but good performances at intervals down the order kept the Sea Eagles climbing to a defensible tally with Tynan Taylor opening with 33 runs.
Chris Dwyer followed up at five with 23 runs before Geordie Gibbs contributed a further 24 to help build the tally.
Md Rizwanul Ivan with 15 and then a pair of 11s to Dan Blacka and David Shane late in the innings capped the total for the Sea Eagles.
With the bat in hand, Brenda Daley had set a good start for the Knights with 40 runs to his name before being caught by Tathra keeper Geordie Gibbs.
A half-century 51 to Dylan Jordan built on the start and the Knights looked promising for a strong run chase.
However, the Tathra bowling attack ramped up in the afternoon and devastated the lower order, claiming five ducks on the way to ending Merimbula's innings all-out for 125.
At Bega's George Griffin Oval, covers on the pitch and the sun breaking through the clouds allowed play to go ahead with players saying it dried out nicely for a strong afternoon of competition.
The Bulls were playing host to the Bermagui Breakers and some big hitters from both teams contributed to some strong run scores with few wickets given from either team on the day.
Bermi dropped just one wicket on their way to figures of 1/170 with Liam Cooper leading the charge to score 76 runs not-out for the visitors.
Julian Poulter made the half-century, climbing to 56 runs before he was dismissed by a Greg Longmire catch.
However, Ben Tett at three kept the partnership strong with Cooper to secure 24 more runs not-out as the Breakers batted out the innings.
With a target set and the bat in hand, Bulls opener Brad Moon got to 33 runs, while Rob Stevenson was caught out for a single.
However, Liam Kelly at three firmed up the order in a big way, knocking 75 runs.
Jay Trevaskis was done by a Casey Jack catch for one, but a neat 51 not-out by Cody Hazelgrove Danvers sealed the win for the Bulls as they rounded 3/173 with three overs in hand.
