New Waratah: Ben Volavola
Newington’s Ben Volavola (ON ‘10) has recently secured the last spot in the Waratahs squad for 2013. It’s a fantastic achievement for such a young player. Ben’s representative honours include Australia U20s and NSW A. He backed up his inaugural year in the Sydney Premiership this year with a series of standout performances in the Shute Shield this season after making his debut in round 12. Ben is a highly skilful player who is able to play fullback and flyhalf. While at Newington, Ben was instrumental in leading the change of culture to the College’s senior rugby program.
