The Decky Robinson Memorial Indigenous Bowls Tournament 2026 (Decky Day) is proud to launch our $10,000 Cash Raffle — giving you the chance to win big while supporting an incredible cause.

Decky Day is a community-led annual fundraising event hosted at WISOS Bowling Club in NSW. Our bowls tournament brings people together to celebrate sport, culture and community while raising funds that make a real difference.

This year, we are proud to support  Gumbaynggirr Giingana Freedom School — NSW's first bilingual Aboriginal language school and a registered not-for-profit organisation.  https://www.giinganaschool.org.au/

The school delivers culturally grounded education for Aboriginal children, with a strong focus on language revitalisation, culture, identity and community-led learning. It is helping preserve Aboriginal language and empower the next generation.

Funds raised through this raffle will contribute to:

• Educational programs
• Classroom resources
• Cultural learning initiatives
• Student support services

In line with fundraising requirements, a minimum percentage of proceeds will be directed to the beneficiary, with additional surplus funds further supporting the school and associated community initiatives where possible.
