In the B Handicap the boys have a must-win game against Gungahlin Lakes at home if they are to make the finals, after having two squared matches in the last two rounds. They drew with Goulburn at home last Sunday and against Belconnen at Belconnen the previous Sunday.
The Junior side had a 3.5 to 2.5 win over Gungahlin Lakes at Federal last Sunday to make their way through to the finals which start March 15. Well done boys.
The Seniors Master Handicap side are sitting pretty on top of their division ladder with four wins, one draw and no losses after a win over RMC last Thursday - 3.5 to 2.5.
