T4L 22 was the first Club Championship finals for the high school division and it didn't disappoint with magnificent performances across the three clubs.
The Honey Badgers and the Donkeys wrestled out for first place honors and in the end it was the Donkeys who surfaced on top by the narrowest of margins. Badgers finished with 289 points and the Donkeys with 295 points and the Hornets on 268 points.
The team had a last minute scratching with Henry Cowell from PHS out crook just before kickoff which could well have hurt them considering Henry's capacity. He was well replaced with a ready and raring Ben Pickens from Calrossy who more than held his own. The rest of the team consisted of Hamish Ward (CAS), Declan Lewis (CAS), Jack Mitchell (CAS) and Jake Wilson (FAR).
The young Donkeys had not just one but three players score in excess of 300 points which in the end was the difference. This is remarkable as all scores are V5 or above. Declan Lewis finished best on ground with a score of 327 points, Jake Wilson 319 and Jack Mitchel 315.
All players served themselves and their clubs well and should be proud of their efforts in a notably difficult modified finals format. Eeeooorrr to them and well done boys.
