Healesville Bowls Club’s number one side travelled to play Ferntree Gully 2 on their slick carpet in gusty winds, which made conditions really tricky.
After being close at the break 40/41, Healesville fell away after half time to be comfortably beaten 74/101.
Healesville 2 played Yarra Glen 3 and took up where they had left off before the Christmas break and had another very good win to remain top of the ladder.
The results for Saturday Pennant played on 12 January are:
Ferntree Gully 2 (14/101) d Healesville 1 (4/74)
A. Phillips 15/21, A. Beales 22/20, S. Graham 25/22, B. Simmons 12/38
