In the morning game Dugald came out firing, winning the first six ends (including a four) and wiped out his handicap deficit to be 15-12.  Then it was Carl’s turn who then won eight of the next twelve ends to lead 25-24 at the eighteenth end.  Once again the match turned, this time in favour of Dugald who won the next four ends to win 31-25.

In the afternoon game it was Noel Fraser who had a great start, winning eight of the first nine ends.  This extended his handicap start so that he lead 21-5.   Kevin then started his fight back and won eight ends on a row  to trail by one shot 22-21.  From then onwards the game swung back in favour of Noel with Kevin only winning two of the next eight ends and Noel coming out winner 31-24.
