Warren Wilson played double lead in the other game of Triples. Warren, Ken Watts and Jim Quod defeated Warren, Alen Sanderson and Peter Lawton 21 - 15.

Division 1 Pennants had a Saturday when the results didn't fall their way. Playing at Northern Beaches there were losses on all 3 rinks to leave an aggregate score of 53 - 80.  Sunday was another day coming up against Souths Suburban at Proserpine. Now this was a match of millimetres and intense struggles for supremacy.  Proserpine prevailed winning on all three rinks to take the day 57 - 51.

Division 4 Pennants played at home on Saturday against Mackay City. Weather conditions were very trying with all players getting a thorough rinsing but play persisted and games were played to completion in good spirits. Proserpine won the match 43 - 25 with one rink win and one drawn rink. Sunday's match was at RSL Slade Point Mackay. This match was won by RSL 24 - 43.
