Tweed Coast Raiders' star claims top honour

TWEED Coast Raiders star Oscar Clarke claimed a double at the Group 18 Junior Rugby League representative awards ceremony.

Clarke was named Representative Player of the Year and also claimed the Most Consistent award in the under-16 age division at the presentation night at Cudgen Leagues Club last month.

The talented forward was one of four Group 18 players named in the East Coast Dolphins under-16 side that contested the Country Rugby League Championships.

Cudgen duo Ethan Kane and Ryan Steidam and South Tweed forward Brenton Daley-Holton also made the Dolphins side after impressing for Tweed Byron Group 18 in a series of trial matches against teams from Groups 1, 2 and 3.

The Dolphins then made a splash in the championships, advancing to the semi-finals before going down 28-8 to Western Rams.

Tweed Byron Group 18 representative teams also enjoyed success in the under 14 and under 15 divisions, making the semi-finals of the Country Championships played at Forster.

Bilambil's Josh Bevan was named Most Consistent in the under-14 age division while South Tweed's Keam Clothier clamed the award in the under-15 division.
