The Bulldogs produced a strong second half performance to defeat the Crows 11.13 (79) to 9.7 (61) at Leeton Showground.
Leeton-Whitton led until midway through the third quarter before the Bulldogs gradually ran over the top.
Turvey Park co-coach Mark Carroll was pleased with how his team finished the game.
"It was a real battle. Leeton were really up for it and played well," Carroll said.
"We started to come good halfway through the third quarter, we started to get on top in the middle and give our forwards more opportunities and the tide turned through perseverance.
"We showed plenty of resilience and it was good to get the reward."
Turvey Park's backline led the way with Harry Stapleton, Jack Haggar, Chase Grintell and Harry Woods among the Bulldogs' best.
Jeremy Sykes was good through the midfield, Nathan Byrne was strong in the ruck all day, while Dan Leary and Brad Ashcroft were strong in attack.
Turvey Park also had two teenagers make their senior debut in Rhys Leary and Angus Grigg.
The Crows' senior players led the way with Bryce O'Garey, Ryan Grey, Tom Meline and Mason Dryburgh all having good games.
