The Red's were hardly challenged in the match played at Skinners reserve on Saturday.
Entering the match with an aggressive game-plan, the team piled on two goals in the first half followed by two more in the second.
Four separate players recorded goals for the side, which delighted coach Jamie Winton.
"We hadn't been scoring well the past few weeks, so we had a chat at training on how we can get some more balls in the back of the net," he said.
Ballarat welcomed Daryl Tauschke back to the team, who had been out of action with a calf injury suffered in preseason. Liam Haintz also made his return after re-injuring his ankle three weeks ago.
But it wasn't all good news.
Star forward Justin Whitcher failed to return to the match after leaving the field with a groin injury.
Ballarat will play Keilor Wolves this week.
