Three Bellarine Peninsula clubs are left to fight it out for the Geelong Bowls Region Premier Pennant flag.
Ocean Grove, Queenscliff and Drysdale are still in the race for the premiership after Highton was knocked out during the first week of finals on Saturday 20 February.
A 10-shot win kept Drysdale in the hunt and consigned Highton to preparing for the 2026/27 season.
Drysdale will take on Queenscliff in the preliminary final this week with the winner to take on Ocean Grove.
The Grovers got up by two shots in a thrilling grand final qualifier although Queenscliff will believe it can still win the flag after a terrific showing.
Ocean Grove already has its Division 1, 2 and 7 sides in the grand final while its Division 3 and 8 teams have another chance in the preliminary finals.
