The boys from Ballarat proved too good in Sunday’s final at Mt Xavier, prevailing 3 1/2 to 1 1/2 over a gallant Buninyong.

Kieran Chapis and Liam Howlett got Ballarat off to a great start, scoring victories over Luke Inglis (5/4) and James Inglis (6/5) respectively to go two up early in the clash.

An exciting battle followed between Buninyong’s Joel Smith and Ballarat’s Ryan Wilson, with neither giving an inch before fighting out a draw.

In the next match, Brandon Davidson got the better of Paddy Murphy, winning 5/4, to give Ballarat an unassailable lead.

David O’Donnell got one back for Buninyong late in the day when he defeated Kacee Kirwan-Hamilton two up in a tight affair.
