How long have you been coaching?
I have been lucky to be the coach of Josh’s team since he started in the 7th grade. Therefore I have been coaching for 8 years.
What teams do you follow?
Do not really follow any teams in general but always behind Canterbury and New Zealand teams wherever they perform and play (what ever sport).
What sport did you play at school?
Played football (limited) and badminton (was never really good at smashing though as I did not have any height, funny that).
Your greatest sporting memory? (Can be yours or some thing you saw etc)
Greatest sporting memory would be Team New Zealand winning the America’s Cup in San Diego against Dennis Connor.
Also have good memories watching the All Whites at the Football World Cup in Spain during the 1982 campaign and then proudly again this year in South Africa.
What sports person do you admire the most?
The sports person I admire the most would be Sarah Ulmer and Ryan Nelsen (really appreciated his interviews and chats through 2010)
Favorite Movie?
My favorite movie would be Shrek and Harry Potter (the originals)
What was the last movie you saw?
Last movie that I saw was Toy Story 3. It was just great
Favorite book
I do not make time to read and therefore do not have a favourite book.
Favorite music? (can be genre or bands etc)
Generally like all sorts of music and do not have any particular favourites, but I cannot stand rap, gangster or heavy metal genre though.
What is the thing you would most like to do in the world?
The thing that I would most like to do in the world is visit wildlife parks in Africa and Alaska to experience animals in their natural habitat.
