Mr Guider explains, “The High School Lawn Bowls Competition, Let’s Play Bowls, is in its third year and Hunter River High School are this year’s winner.” The four person competition is played over two sets of eight ends, which creates the opportunity for any side to win. Players are required to rotate positions prior to each match. This challenges the players to deliver a variety of bowls during the games. The Hunter River High School side included Raymond Terrace Bowling Club representative players, Blair Soars and Zac Nicholls, as well as Ryan Jonovski and Kane Chester. Hunter River High School defeated Great Lakes College Forster in their semi-final and then had a seesawing match in the final against Toronto High School. An unbeatable bowl on the last end by Kane Chester, saw the Hunter River High School side come out on top. The winners were awarded a cheque for $1000.00, which the student proudly presented to their Hunter River High School.
