Chairperson, Masterton

Kia ora koutou

Initially my love of sport and the belief that regional New Zealand is a breeding ground for  young sports people encouraged me to become a Trustee.

The reward has been to see how many of our youth with assistance from family, friends and the Robert Algie Trust have gone on to achieve greater honours, regionally, nationally and then at an international level.

Kia ora koutou

I have been involved with Hockey, Cricket, Swimming, Table Tennis, Tennis and Basketball as either a player, coach, manager or administrator.  I enjoy seeing our youth playing sport and achieving their sporting goals.  Being part of the Robert Algie Memorial Trust is one way I can assist Wairarapa’s youth with their goals.

Trustee, Martinborough

Kia ora koutou

It is indeed a privilege to represent Martinborough on the Robert Algie Memorial Sports Trust. I became the Martinborough Trustee after the passing of George Hawkins in 1999. George was one of the original trustees and served for 9 years.

I have been involved in sport in some shape and form all my life and and personally have gained much from my participation and involvement.

Please feel free to get in contact with me if you know of anyone, under 20, that needs support to reaching their sporting potential or if you wish to support the trust.

Trustee, Greytown

Kia ora koutou

What a privilege it is to be the Greytown Representative of the Robert Algie Trust team.  I am born and breed in Greytown and attended Greytown Kindergarten, School and Kuranui College.  I have been involved with sporting teams all my life as a player, coach, manager and supporter. I was fortunate to represent New Zealand as a hockey umpire so I know full well the stresses, strains and commitment it takes to reach one’s potential.

Please feel free to contact me if you can help us as a trust and or we can help you.
