JIMBOOMBA Redbacks posted senior men's and women's wins on a big day for the club at Glenlogan Park on Saturday.
Both sides earned comprehensive wins in their competitions on the club's charity day and sit in the top half of their ladders.

Larni Milne kicked two goals for the women in their win over Labrador Tigers.
The Redbacks triumphed 5.9 (39) to 2.0 (12).
Marni Balmforth also kicked a goal, as did Nichole Keen and Chloe Ackland.
The win left the Redbacks in fourth on the competition ladder. Coach Steve Alford is eyeing off the top three for his team after the next match against Surfers Paradise, then the bye.
Chloe Martin will soon take to the field again after an ankle injury. Martin will be a big in for the side, Alford said, and will play in the midfield or forwards.
"She's just a gun player, he said.
"She was a junior for us who has played all the way through. She's a massive in."
Tim Martin continued his golden run with the boot in another win for the men.
Martin booted three goals for the Redbacks in the victory over Morningside at Glenlogan Park.
The Magpies won 9.9 (63) to 2.5 (17) to exact revenge on the Panthers for beating them in the previous round at Jack Esplen Oval.
They kept the opposition scoreless in the first quarter in a solid defensive start, while booting two majors themselves, to lead by 13 at the first break.
The hosts kicked two goals in the second and third quarters and three in the final term to seal the win.
Dylan Schoemaker joined Martin on the scoresheet, with two goals. Jake Butler kicked two and Mat Stockham and Tim Cahill found the goal once each.
The win leaves the Redbacks in equal second on the ladder, with 24 points.
The Redbacks men have next weekend off before taking on Maroochydore at Glenlogan Park on July 3 at 1pm.
The women's match against Surfers Paradise is at 4pm Saturday.
Hodges' milestone
Ashleigh Hodges has finally notched her 150th Aussie rules game.
Hodges, who used to play for Jimboomba Redbacks, brought up the big number at new club Southport Sharks on the weekend.
She played 137 matches for the Redbacks before switching to the Sharks at the start of this season.
Hodges' former club recognised the achievement, presenting her with a plaque to mark the occasion.
The big game should have happened last year, but COVID restrictions put an end to any chance of it being played in 2020.
