Hadyn Evans

Hadyn Paul "Teddy" Evans, born on 15 October 1962 in Hamilton, New Zealand, is a lawn bowler who represents Norfolk Island at international level. Outside the sport he is a businessman who runs a boutique piggery and market garden at Anson Bay, a stage actor who took up the craft relatively late in life, and a former local politician who sat in the Norfolk Island Legislative Assembly as an independent from March 2013 until the assembly was abolished in June 2015. He describes himself as an eighth-generation descendant of the Bounty mutineers. In bowls he was chosen for the Norfolk Island team at the 2018 Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast, carried the island flag at the opening ceremony and won a bronze medal in the triples with Phillip Jones and Ryan Dixon. He was selected for the cancelled 2020 World Outdoor Bowls Championship, played the men's triples and fours at the 2022 Commonwealth Games, and took part in the same two events at the 2023 World Outdoor Bowls Championship.
