The group made the trek to Gainman in less than desirable weather, but came away with big wins.
Marg Naesby took out the first division title, as well as being crowned 2018 Ladies Riverina sand green champion.
Debbie Health won the Jo Kay Memorial trophy for scratch winner division three.
Coleambally had other successes on the day too.
Carolyn Martin was the runner up for scratch division two and Carolyne Rutledge earned the club another second place in the runner-up handicap scratch division two.
Naesby said the effort was great all-around.
“We had two trophy winners and a couple of ladies get runners up,” she said.
“I was extremely proud of the ladies. Even more so because there were three other Coleambally names on the championship trophy. It’s pretty impressive from a small club.”
She said Coleambally’s course had helped prepare them for the competition.
“We seem to do well when we go away. Our course is pretty testing at times and it helps us when we go away.”
The group will now prepare for upcoming competitions including their club tournament.
